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

Hugues Sana focuses on Astrophysics, Stars, Large Magellanic Cloud, Radial velocity and Spectral line. Hugues Sana combines Astrophysics and Population in his studies. His Stars study is concerned with the larger field of Astronomy.

He combines subjects such as Star cluster and Star formation, OB star, Stellar mass, Young stellar object with his study of Large Magellanic Cloud. Mass ratio is closely connected to Orbital period in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Radial velocity. The study incorporates disciplines such as Atmosphere and Cosmic Origins Spectrograph in addition to Spectral line.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• An excess of massive stars in the local 30 Doradus starburst. (149 citations)
• Massive runaways and walkaway stars (74 citations)
• Massive runaway and walkaway stars. A study of the kinematical imprints of the physical processes governing the evolution and explosion of their binary progenitors (67 citations)

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

• Astrophysics
• Astronomy
• Stars

Astrophysics, Stars, Large Magellanic Cloud, Spectral line and Black hole are his primary areas of study. His study deals with a combination of Astrophysics and Population. His studies in Stars integrate themes in fields like Galaxy and Star.

Hugues Sana focuses mostly in the field of Large Magellanic Cloud, narrowing it down to topics relating to Star cluster and, in certain cases, Molecular cloud. His study in the fields of Very Large Telescope under the domain of Spectral line overlaps with other disciplines such as Mixing. In his work, Stellar classification is strongly intertwined with O-type star, which is a subfield of Stellar evolution.
