Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

Jens Hjorth mostly deals with Astrophysics, Gamma-ray burst, Astronomy, Galaxy and Redshift. His study involves Supernova, Star formation, Stars, Light curve and Metallicity, a branch of Astrophysics. As part of one scientific family, Jens Hjorth deals mainly with the area of Supernova, narrowing it down to issues related to the GRB 980425, and often GRB 030329.

He combines subjects such as Luminosity, Very Large Telescope and Neutron star with his study of Gamma-ray burst. His research on Astronomy often connects related areas such as Light emission. His Redshift research integrates issues from Cosmology, Spectroscopy and Emission spectrum.

His most cited work include:

  • A very energetic supernova associated with the γ-ray burst of 29 March 2003 (1153 citations)
  • X-shooter, the new wide band intermediate resolution spectrograph at the ESO Very Large Telescope (773 citations)
  • Long γ-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae have different environments (750 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Gamma-ray burst, Galaxy, Astronomy and Redshift. His study in Afterglow, Supernova, Light curve, Star formation and Extinction falls under the purview of Astrophysics. His studies in Supernova integrate themes in fields like Stellar evolution, GRB 980425 and Photometry.

His Gamma-ray burst research incorporates elements of Spectral line, Spectral energy distribution, Spectroscopy, Luminosity and Swift. His Galaxy study frequently links to related topics such as Stars. His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cosmology and Very Large Telescope.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (94.32%)
  • Gamma-ray burst (61.60%)
  • Galaxy (60.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (94.32%)
  • Galaxy (60.37%)
  • Gamma-ray burst (61.60%)

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

Jens Hjorth spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Galaxy, Gamma-ray burst, Supernova and Redshift. His Astronomy research extends to Astrophysics, which is thematically connected. His research brings together the fields of Stars and Galaxy.

His Gamma-ray burst study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Spectral energy distribution, Line, Stellar population, Energy and Swift. His Supernova course of study focuses on Photometry and Brightness and Spectroscopy. His biological study focuses on Gravitational lens.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A gravitational-wave standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant (489 citations)
  • Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger (478 citations)
  • The Emergence of a Lanthanide-Rich Kilonova Following the Merger of Two Neutron Stars (375 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Quantum mechanics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Gamma-ray burst. Astrophysics is a component of his Supernova, Light curve, Neutron star, Kilonova and Photometry studies. Jens Hjorth interconnects Stars, Magnification and Galaxy cluster in the investigation of issues within Supernova.

He works mostly in the field of Redshift, limiting it down to concerns involving Metallicity and, occasionally, Type II supernova and Galaxy formation and evolution. He is involved in the study of Astronomy that focuses on Observatory in particular. His work on Afterglow as part of general Gamma-ray burst study is frequently linked to Context, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
