  • Van Allen Probes (9.27%)
  • Magnetosphere (30.73%)
  • Space weather (13.01%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Van Allen Probes, Magnetosphere, Space weather, Ring current and Geophysics. His work deals with themes such as Ion, Geomagnetic storm, Proton and Atomic physics, which intersect with Van Allen Probes. His Atomic physics study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Electron.

His Magnetosphere research includes themes of Solar wind, Computational physics, Astrophysics and Oxygen ions. His studies examine the connections between Space weather and genetics, as well as such issues in Atmospheric sciences, with regards to Planetary science. Geophysics is closely attributed to Latitude in his work.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Search for the exit: Voyager 1 at heliosphere's border with the galaxy. (158 citations)
  • An impenetrable barrier to ultrarelativistic electrons in the Van Allen radiation belts (117 citations)
  • Radiation Belt Storm Probes Ion Composition Experiment (RBSPICE) (111 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron
  • Astronomy

Louis J. Lanzerotti mainly focuses on Van Allen Probes, Magnetosphere, Van Allen radiation belt, Ring current and Geophysics.
