Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Supernova and Spectral line. His is involved in several facets of Astrophysics study, as is seen by his studies on Stellar evolution, Type II supernova, Redshift, Stars and Metallicity. His work on Ejecta, Spectroscopy, Stellar black hole and Binary black hole as part of general Astronomy study is frequently linked to Type, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His study in Quasar and Extinction is done as part of Galaxy. His studies deal with areas such as Supergiant, Red supergiant, Light curve and Spiral galaxy as well as Supernova. The various areas that he examines in his Supergiant study include Variable star, Giant star and Altair.

His most cited work include:

  • The death of massive stars – I. Observational constraints on the progenitors of Type II-P supernovae (658 citations)
  • The death of massive stars – I. Observational constraints on the progenitors of Type II-P supernovae (658 citations)
  • A γ-ray burst at a redshift of z ≈ 8.2 (574 citations)

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

Justyn R. Maund mostly deals with Astrophysics, Supernova, Astronomy, Galaxy and Stars. The Astrophysics study combines topics in areas such as Spectral line and Polarization. His Supernova research incorporates elements of Supergiant, Luminosity, Stellar evolution and Photometry.

His Stellar evolution research incorporates themes from Star formation and Altair. His Galaxy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gamma-ray burst and Cosmic dust. In his work, Flattening is strongly intertwined with Radioactive decay, which is a subfield of Light curve.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (109.06%)
  • Supernova (84.15%)
  • Astronomy (50.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (109.06%)
  • Supernova (84.15%)
  • Light curve (25.28%)

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

Justyn R. Maund focuses on Astrophysics, Supernova, Light curve, Stars and Polarization. Justyn R. Maund focuses mostly in the field of Astrophysics, narrowing it down to topics relating to Spectral line and, in certain cases, Helium. Justyn R. Maund has researched Supernova in several fields, including Spectral energy distribution, Polarimetry, Magnetar, Spectroscopy and Red supergiant.

His Magnetar research integrates issues from Galaxy and Spiral galaxy. His Light curve study combines topics in areas such as Radioactive decay, Gravitational microlensing and Envelope. His work on Radial velocity, Orbital period and Bulge as part of general Stars study is frequently connected to Orbit, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Late-time Flattening of Type Ia Supernova Light Curves: Constraints from SN 2014J in M82 (33 citations)
  • The very young resolved stellar populations around stripped-envelope supernovae (32 citations)
  • The Type II-Plateau Supernova 2017eaw in NGC 6946 and Its Red Supergiant Progenitor (27 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way
  • Galaxy

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Supernova, Polarization, Stars and Light curve. His study in Astrophysics concentrates on Ejecta, Very Large Telescope, Gravitational wave, Neutron star and Supergiant. His work carried out in the field of Supernova brings together such families of science as Polarimetry, Wavelength, Red supergiant and Chandrasekhar limit, White dwarf.

His work deals with themes such as Scattering, Magnetar, Circumstellar dust and Galaxy, Interstellar medium, which intersect with Polarimetry. His study in Red supergiant is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spectral energy distribution, Photosphere, Metallicity and Spitzer Space Telescope. His study on Radial velocity, Gravitational microlensing, Orbital period and Bulge is often connected to Orbit as part of broader study in Stars.
