Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Fabian Walter mainly investigates Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Star formation and Redshift. His research related to Quasar, Luminous infrared galaxy, Luminosity, Dwarf galaxy and Line might be considered part of Astrophysics. His Quasar study combines topics in areas such as Spectral line, Supermassive black hole, Equivalent width and Eddington luminosity.

His research on Galaxy frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Stars. Fabian Walter interconnects Molecular cloud, Radius, Infrared, Spiral galaxy and Stellar evolution in the investigation of issues within Star formation. His work carried out in the field of Redshift brings together such families of science as Spectral energy distribution, Dust emission and Emission spectrum.

His most cited work include:

  • The Star Formation Efficiency in Nearby Galaxies: Measuring Where Gas Forms Stars Effectively (1540 citations)
  • The Star Formation Law in Nearby Galaxies on Sub-Kpc Scales (1515 citations)
  • SINGS: The SIRTF Nearby Galaxies Survey (1143 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Fabian Walter mostly deals with Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Astronomy and Redshift. Quasar, Luminosity, Luminous infrared galaxy, Line and Interstellar medium are the primary areas of interest in his Astrophysics study. His Quasar research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Galaxy merger, Spectral line, Reionization, Submillimeter Array and Supermassive black hole.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Stars, Infrared and Emission spectrum in addition to Galaxy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Metallicity, Active galactic nucleus, Spiral galaxy and Molecular cloud. His Redshift study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as COSMIC cancer database, Universe and Millimeter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (109.96%)
  • Galaxy (88.55%)
  • Star formation (47.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (109.96%)
  • Galaxy (88.55%)
  • Quasar (40.83%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Quasar, Redshift and Star formation. Luminosity, Interstellar medium, Line, Reionization and COSMIC cancer database are among the areas of Astrophysics where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His research in Hubble Ultra-Deep Field, Galaxy formation and evolution, Stellar mass, Accretion and Submillimeter Array are components of Galaxy.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Quasar, Halo is strongly linked to Spectral line. His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metallicity, Spectral density, Universe, Luminous infrared galaxy and Emission spectrum. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Star formation, focusing on Spectral energy distribution and, on occasion, James Webb Space Telescope.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An 800-million-solar-mass black hole in a significantly neutral Universe at a redshift of 7.5 (487 citations)
  • PHIBSS: Unified Scaling Relations of Gas Depletion Time and Molecular Gas Fractions (363 citations)
  • An ALMA [C II] Survey of 27 Quasars at z > 5.94 (137 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Quasar and Star formation. His Astrophysics study is mostly concerned with Luminosity, Interstellar medium, COSMIC cancer database, Line and Galaxy formation and evolution. His Galaxy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Millimeter and Continuum.

His research in Redshift intersects with topics in Universe, Emissivity, Submillimeter Array and Eddington luminosity. His research on Quasar concerns the broader Astronomy. His studies in Star formation integrate themes in fields like Supernova, Milky Way, Spiral galaxy, Infrared excess and Luminous infrared galaxy.
