What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Optics
- Astronomy
- Astrophysics
Jeff McMahon spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, South Pole Telescope, Astronomy, Cosmic microwave background and Redshift.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Astrophysics, Big Bang nucleosynthesis and Matter power spectrum is strongly linked to Cosmic background radiation.
His South Pole Telescope research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sunyaev–Zel'dovich effect, Hubble's law, Point source, Observational cosmology and Millimeter.
His studies in Astronomy integrate themes in fields like Cosmic infrared background and Engineering research.
His study in Cosmic microwave background is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Dark energy, Polarization and Planck.
He has included themes like Dark matter and Sky in his Redshift study.
His most cited work include:
- Galaxy clusters discovered via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect in the 2500-square-degree SPT-SZ survey (466 citations)
- The 10 Meter South Pole Telescope (462 citations)
- A MEASUREMENT OF THE DAMPING TAIL OF THE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND POWER SPECTRUM WITH THE SOUTH POLE TELESCOPE (447 citations)
