Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way
  • Galaxy

Manuela Zoccali spends much of her time researching Astrophysics, Astronomy, Bulge, Stars and Milky Way. Her works in Metallicity, Galaxy, Red-giant branch, Omega Centauri and Galaxy formation and evolution are all subjects of inquiry into Astrophysics. Her Bulge research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Distance modulus, Galactic plane, Thick disk and Velocity dispersion.

Manuela Zoccali studied Stars and Spectral line that intersect with Baade's Window and Spectroscopy. Her Milky Way research is mostly focused on the topic Vista Variables in the Via Lactea. Her research integrates issues of Star and Star count in her study of Globular cluster.

Her most cited work include:

  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)
  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)
  • VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV): The public ESO near-IR variability survey of the Milky Way (727 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Stars, Bulge, Astronomy and Globular cluster. Her work in Metallicity, Milky Way, Galaxy, Red clump and Red-giant branch is related to Astrophysics. The various areas that Manuela Zoccali examines in her Milky Way study include Stellar density and Galactic halo.

Her Stars research incorporates themes from Spectral line and Thick disk. Her research in Bulge intersects with topics in Galactic Center, Radial velocity, Stellar population, Galaxy formation and evolution and Galactic plane. Her Globular cluster research includes elements of Star cluster, Open cluster and Photometry.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (126.39%)
  • Stars (78.69%)
  • Bulge (79.42%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (126.39%)
  • Bulge (79.42%)
  • Stars (78.69%)

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

Manuela Zoccali mainly investigates Astrophysics, Bulge, Stars, Milky Way and Galaxy. She regularly links together related areas like Astronomy in her Astrophysics studies. Her research on Bulge also deals with topics like

  • Galaxy formation and evolution that connect with fields like Optical spectra,
  • Cepheid variable most often made with reference to Variable star.

Her study in Stars is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spectral line, Line-of-sight and Thick disk. In the field of Milky Way, her study on Vista Variables in the Via Lactea overlaps with subjects such as Center. Her Globular cluster research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spectroscopy, Star cluster and Open cluster.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)
  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)
  • The GIRAFFE Inner Bulge Survey (GIBS) - III. Metallicity distributions and kinematics of 26 Galactic bulge fields (118 citations)

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

  • Milky Way
  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Bulge, Milky Way, Astronomy and Stars. Astrophysics is a component of her RR Lyrae variable, Globular cluster, Galaxy, Red clump and Galactic Center studies. Manuela Zoccali usually deals with Globular cluster and limits it to topics linked to Open cluster and Proper motion.

Her Bulge study also includes fields such as

  • Metallicity and related Giant star,
  • Velocity dispersion which connect with Stellar population. Her Milky Way research focuses on subjects like Stellar density, which are linked to Star count, Stellar mass and Supermassive black hole. As part of her studies on Stars, Manuela Zoccali frequently links adjacent subjects like Spectral line.
