Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astrophysics

Astrophysics, Astronomy, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Telescope and Galaxy are his primary areas of study. His Gamma ray, Cosmic ray, Active galactic nucleus, Blazar and Pulsar study are his primary interests in Astrophysics. The various areas that Francesco Longo examines in his Astronomy study include Gamma-ray astronomy and Flux.

His Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spectral line, Luminosity, Spitzer Space Telescope, Gamma-ray burst and Dark matter. The concepts of his Telescope study are interwoven with issues in Supernova remnant, Galactic plane, Redshift and Observatory. His research in Galaxy intersects with topics in Light curve and Point source.

His most cited work include:

  • Geant4—a simulation toolkit (14489 citations)
  • Geant4 developments and applications (4474 citations)
  • The Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope Mission (3084 citations)

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

Francesco Longo mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Astronomy, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma ray and Telescope. His works in Blazar, Galaxy, Gamma-ray burst, Active galactic nucleus and MAGIC are all subjects of inquiry into Astrophysics. His work in Galaxy addresses issues such as Dark matter, which are connected to fields such as Annihilation.

Much of his study explores Astronomy relationship to Gamma-ray astronomy. His Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope study combines topics in areas such as Spectral line, Cosmic ray, Pulsar and Spitzer Space Telescope. His work carried out in the field of Gamma ray brings together such families of science as Flux, Sky, Stars, Photon and Spectral index.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (132.49%)
  • Astronomy (82.44%)
  • Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (86.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (132.49%)
  • Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (86.40%)
  • Gamma ray (55.74%)

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

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma ray, Astronomy and MAGIC. His study in Blazar, Spectral energy distribution, Gamma-ray burst, Galaxy and Telescope is carried out as part of his studies in Astrophysics. His work in Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope addresses subjects such as Redshift, which are connected to disciplines such as Accretion.

His Gamma ray research includes themes of X-ray, Photon, Synchrotron, Astroparticle physics and Spectral shape analysis. His Astronomy study typically links adjacent topics like Cherenkov Telescope Array. His MAGIC research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Crab Nebula, Hadron, Cherenkov radiation and Flux.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger (478 citations)
  • The Fermi Galactic Center GeV Excess and Implications for Dark Matter (251 citations)
  • The Fermi Galactic Center GeV Excess and Implications for Dark Matter (251 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma ray, Astronomy and Galaxy. His study in Blazar, Telescope, Flare, Active galactic nucleus and Spectral energy distribution is done as part of Astrophysics. His Telescope course of study focuses on Observatory and Cherenkov Telescope Array.

His research integrates issues of Gamma-ray burst, Crab Nebula, Energy flux and Sky in his study of Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope.
