Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way
  • Galaxy

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Supernova and Spectral line. His work in Stars, Milky Way, Disc, Interstellar medium and Galactic halo are all subfields of Astrophysics research. His work in Astronomy is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Ultraviolet.

George Sonneborn usually deals with Galaxy and limits it to topics linked to Observatory and Planetary system, Reionization and James Webb Space Telescope. His Supernova research includes elements of Cosmic dust and Light curve. His Spectral line research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Radiative transfer and White dwarf.

His most cited work include:

  • The James Webb Space Telescope (892 citations)
  • Overview of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Mission (636 citations)
  • Highly Ionized High-Velocity Gas in the Vicinity of the Galaxy (471 citations)

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

George Sonneborn mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Astronomy, Spectral line, Stars and Supernova. His Astrophysics study combines topics in areas such as Ultraviolet and Emission spectrum. His research in Ultraviolet astronomy, Nova, Large Magellanic Cloud, White dwarf and Astronomical spectroscopy are components of Astronomy.

His studies deal with areas such as Wavelength, Absorption, Ionization, Interstellar medium and Radiative transfer as well as Spectral line. The study incorporates disciplines such as Spectroscopy, Extinction, Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, Light curve and Pulsar in addition to Supernova. His Milky Way research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Halo and Galactic halo.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (80.65%)
  • Astronomy (54.50%)
  • Spectral line (29.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Astrophysics (80.65%)
  • Astronomy (54.50%)
  • Supernova (21.80%)

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

His primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Astronomy, Supernova, Galaxy and James Webb Space Telescope. The various areas that George Sonneborn examines in his Astrophysics study include Spectroscopy and Ultraviolet. His work on Solar System, Light curve, Circumstellar dust and Supernova remnant as part of general Astronomy research is often related to Lyman limit, thus linking different fields of science.

His Supernova study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Large Magellanic Cloud and Spectral line, Spectral energy distribution, Emission spectrum. His research investigates the link between Spectral line and topics such as Line that cross with problems in Center and White dwarf. As a part of the same scientific family, George Sonneborn mostly works in the field of Galaxy, focusing on Stars and, on occasion, Infrared.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Herschel Detects a Massive Dust Reservoir in Supernova 1987A (309 citations)
  • A Stubbornly Large Mass of Cold Dust in the Ejecta of Supernova 1987A (151 citations)
  • X-ray illumination of the ejecta of supernova 1987A. (72 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Galaxy

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Supernova, Astronomy, Galaxy and Metallicity. His Astrophysics study typically links adjacent topics like Spectroscopy. His Supernova study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Excited state, Pulsar, Interstellar medium, Ultraviolet and Emission spectrum.

In his research, Astronomical spectroscopy is intimately related to Spectrograph, which falls under the overarching field of Emission spectrum. His Galaxy research incorporates themes from Asymptotic giant branch, Carbon star and Stars. His Metallicity research includes themes of Star formation, Spectral line and Low Mass.
