Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Galaxy formation and evolution. His Stellar mass, Globular cluster, Luminosity, Luminosity function and Star formation investigations are all subjects of Astrophysics research. He combines subjects such as Metallicity, Virgo Cluster and Velocity dispersion with his study of Globular cluster.

His Galaxy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Stars and Spectral line. Lee R. Spitler usually deals with Galaxy formation and evolution and limits it to topics linked to Cosmology and Ultraviolet, Far infrared and COSMIC cancer database. His studies in Halo integrate themes in fields like Dark Ages and Cosmic variance.

His most cited work include:

  • UV luminosity functions at redshifts z ∼ 4 to z ∼ 10: 10,000 galaxies from HST legacy fields (924 citations)
  • UV luminosity functions at redshifts z ∼ 4 to z ∼ 10: 10,000 galaxies from HST legacy fields (924 citations)
  • UV Luminosity Functions at redshifts z~4 to z~10: 10000 Galaxies from HST Legacy Fields (882 citations)

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

Lee R. Spitler mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Globular cluster. Astrophysics is a component of his Galaxy formation and evolution, Stellar mass, Star formation, Elliptical galaxy and Galaxy cluster studies. In the field of Galaxy formation and evolution, his study on Tully–Fisher relation overlaps with subjects such as Power law.

His study brings together the fields of Stars and Galaxy. His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spectral energy distribution, Infrared, Sigma and Photometry. The concepts of his Globular cluster study are interwoven with issues in Hubble sequence, Advanced Camera for Surveys, Star cluster, Dark matter and Velocity dispersion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (139.61%)
  • Galaxy (119.38%)
  • Astronomy (73.31%)

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

  • Astrophysics (139.61%)
  • Galaxy (119.38%)
  • Star formation (29.21%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Emission spectrum and Stellar mass. His work blends Astrophysics and Angular momentum studies together. In most of his Galaxy studies, his work intersects topics such as Number density.

In Emission spectrum, he works on issues like Metallicity, which are connected to Redshift survey. His biological study deals with issues like Galaxy cluster, which deal with fields such as Tully–Fisher relation and Globular cluster. His study with Galaxy formation and evolution involves better knowledge in Astronomy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals (74 citations)
  • Near infrared spectroscopy and star-formation histories of 3 ≤ z ≤ 4 quiescent galaxies (64 citations)
  • 4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals (53 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Stellar mass and Galaxy formation and evolution. His research on Astrophysics frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Doubly ionized oxygen. Many of his studies on Galaxy apply to Black hole as well.

Lee R. Spitler has included themes like Number density and Near-infrared spectroscopy in his Star formation study. His work in Stellar mass tackles topics such as Galaxy cluster which are related to areas like Tully–Fisher relation and Globular cluster. His Active galactic nucleus research incorporates themes from Stars, Spectroscopy, Line and Sample.
