Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Milky Way

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Redshift, Astronomy, Galaxy and Star formation. His research links Spectral line with Astrophysics. Lennox L. Cowie has researched Redshift in several fields, including Wavelength, Luminosity and Galaxy formation and evolution.

His Galaxy research includes themes of Telescope and Spectrograph. The Star formation study combines topics in areas such as Sky, Extragalactic background light and Solar mass. His work on Hubble Ultra-Deep Field as part of general Hubble Deep Field research is often related to Flux, thus linking different fields of science.

His most cited work include:

  • New insight on galaxy formation and evolution from Keck spectroscopy of the Hawaii deep fields (1490 citations)
  • The Chandra Deep Field North Survey. XIII. 2 Ms Point-Source Catalogs (778 citations)
  • Dusty star forming galaxies at high redshift (601 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Star formation. Hubble Deep Field, Luminous infrared galaxy, Luminosity, Active galactic nucleus and Galaxy formation and evolution are the subjects of his Astrophysics studies. In the field of Hubble Deep Field, his study on Hubble Ultra-Deep Field overlaps with subjects such as Field.

He interconnects Stars and Emission spectrum in the investigation of issues within Galaxy. His Redshift research integrates issues from Spectral line, Equivalent width and Quasar. His work in Star formation is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Solar mass.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (120.50%)
  • Galaxy (89.13%)
  • Redshift (86.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (120.50%)
  • Galaxy (89.13%)
  • Redshift (86.65%)

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

Lennox L. Cowie mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Active galactic nucleus. His Galaxy formation and evolution, Luminous infrared galaxy and Extragalactic background light study, which is part of a larger body of work in Astrophysics, is frequently linked to Flux, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Galaxy formation and evolution study deals with Equivalent width intersecting with Extinction.

His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Line, Metallicity, Universe and Continuum. His research integrates issues of Stars and Very-long-baseline interferometry in his study of Active galactic nucleus. His Star formation study incorporates themes from Quasar and Sigma.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Characterization of Scuba-2 450 μm and 850 μm selected galaxies in the COSMOS field (158 citations)
  • LOW-REDSHIFT Lyα SELECTED GALAXIES FROM GALEX SPECTROSCOPY: A COMPARISON WITH BOTH UV-CONTINUUM SELECTED GALAXIES AND HIGH-REDSHIFT Lyα EMITTERS* , ** , ** * (121 citations)
  • Precise Identifications of Submillimeter Galaxies: Measuring the History of Massive Star-Forming Galaxies to z>5 (120 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Submillimeter Array. His study involves Active galactic nucleus, Luminous infrared galaxy, Stars, Extragalactic background light and Luminosity, a branch of Astrophysics. His study in Luminosity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Extinction and Equivalent width.

A large part of his Galaxy studies is devoted to James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. His Redshift research includes elements of Star formation, Dark energy and Dark matter. His studies deal with areas such as Photometric redshift and Interferometry as well as Submillimeter Array.
