Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neutron
  • Optics
  • Archaeology

Radiocarbon dating, Accelerator mass spectrometry, Plutonium, Chlorine-36 and Nuclear physics are his primary areas of study. L.K. Fifield combines subjects such as Oceanography, Sea level and Holocene with his study of Radiocarbon dating. His Accelerator mass spectrometry study results in a more complete grasp of Mass spectrometry.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nuclear engineering, Isotope, TRACER and Analytical chemistry. The Chlorine-36 study combines topics in areas such as Vadose zone, Mineralogy, Calcite and Latitude. While the research belongs to areas of Paleontology, he spends his time largely on the problem of Cave, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Homo floresiensis.

His most cited work include:

  • Archaeology and age of a new hominin from Flores, in eastern Indonesia (344 citations)
  • Radiocarbon dating of old charcoal using a wet oxidation, stepped-combustion procedure (260 citations)
  • Cosmogenic chlorine-36 from calcium spallation (229 citations)

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

L.K. Fifield mainly focuses on Accelerator mass spectrometry, Atomic physics, Nuclear reaction, Nuclear physics and Isotope. His research integrates issues of Radiochemistry, Plutonium and Uranium in his study of Accelerator mass spectrometry. His study in Nuclear reaction is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neutron, Excitation and Ground state.

His Nuclear physics study combines topics in areas such as Nuclear engineering and Spectrometer. The various areas that L.K. Fifield examines in his Isotope study include Sediment and Radionuclide. His Radionuclide study incorporates themes from Chlorine-36 and Atmosphere.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Accelerator mass spectrometry (28.83%)
  • Atomic physics (23.87%)
  • Nuclear reaction (15.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Accelerator mass spectrometry (28.83%)
  • Sediment (9.46%)
  • Isotope (13.96%)

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

His primary areas of study are Accelerator mass spectrometry, Sediment, Isotope, Radionuclide and Hydrology. His Accelerator mass spectrometry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pelletron, Radiochemistry, Plutonium, Uranium and Oceanography. His Uranium research incorporates elements of Chlorine-36, Actinide and Time of flight.

His work deals with themes such as Sedimentary rock, Deep sea, Supernova and Estuary, which intersect with Sediment. His studies deal with areas such as Anthropogenic radionuclides, Disturbance, Delta and Earth science as well as Isotope. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including TRACER, Soil science and Dispersion.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Recent near-Earth supernovae probed by global deposition of interstellar radioactive 60 Fe (126 citations)
  • (137)Cs, (239+240)Pu concentrations and the (240)Pu/(239)Pu atom ratio in a sediment core from the sub-aqueous delta of Yangtze River estuary. (39 citations)
  • Ultra-trace analysis of 36 Cl by accelerator mass spectrometry: An interlaboratory study (39 citations)

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

  • Neutron
  • Optics
  • Archaeology

L.K. Fifield focuses on Accelerator mass spectrometry, Sediment, Supernova, Isotope and Analytical chemistry. His Accelerator mass spectrometry research includes themes of Plutonium, Soil water, Hydrology, Erosion and Uranium. His Hydrology research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Estuary, Environmental chemistry and Delta.

L.K. Fifield has included themes like Chlorine-36 and Mass spectrometry in his Uranium study. The concepts of his Supernova study are interwoven with issues in Deep sea and Atmosphere. His work carried out in the field of Analytical chemistry brings together such families of science as Seawater and Time of flight.
