  • Event Horizon Telescope (13.70%)
  • Neutron star (58.63%)

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

Feryal Özel mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Event Horizon Telescope, Neutron star, Supermassive black hole and Black hole. Her Astrophysics study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as X-ray. Her Event Horizon Telescope research includes themes of General relativity, Active galactic nucleus, Brightness and Very-long-baseline interferometry.

Her Neutron star research incorporates elements of Atmosphere, Radius, Nuclear physics, Equation of state and Gravitational wave. To a larger extent, Feryal Özel studies Astronomy with the aim of understanding Supermassive black hole. Her Black hole research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Accretion, Radiative transfer, Strong gravitational lensing and Gravitation.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole (1011 citations)
  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI. The Shadow and Mass of the Central Black Hole (402 citations)
  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. V. Physical Origin of the Asymmetric Ring (375 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Event Horizon Telescope, Astrophysics, Event horizon, Supermassive black hole and Black hole. Her Event Horizon Telescope study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Astronomy. Her research integrates issues of Spectral line and Brightness in her study of Astrophysics.

The concepts of her Event horizon study are interwoven with issues in Galactic Center and Magnetic field. She studied Black hole and Gravitation that intersect with Schwarzschild radius. Her Neutron star research integrates issues from Symmetry, Nuclear astrophysics, Equation of state, Gravitational wave and Radiation.
