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, Elliptical galaxy and Stellar mass. His study in Redshift, Luminous infrared galaxy, Galaxy formation and evolution, Star formation and Velocity dispersion falls within the category of Astrophysics. As a part of the same scientific study, Marijn Franx usually deals with the Galaxy formation and evolution, concentrating on Advanced Camera for Surveys and frequently concerns with Photometric redshift.

While the research belongs to areas of Galaxy, Marijn Franx spends his time largely on the problem of Stars, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Red shift and Cosmic dust. His Elliptical galaxy study frequently involves adjacent topics like Galaxy cluster. His Stellar mass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sersic profile, Surface brightness, Luminosity and Hubble Deep Field.

His most cited work include:

  • The Star Formation Mass Sequence Out to z = 2.5 (766 citations)
  • Detection of Quiescent Galaxies in a Bicolor Sequence from Z = 0-2 (743 citations)
  • The Growth of Massive Galaxies Since z = 2 (736 citations)

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

Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Star formation are his primary areas of study. His work in Stellar mass, Elliptical galaxy, Galaxy formation and evolution, Velocity dispersion and Luminous infrared galaxy is related to Astrophysics. His studies deal with areas such as Disc and Luminosity function as well as Luminous infrared galaxy.

Marijn Franx combines subjects such as Stars and Photometry with his study of Galaxy. Marijn Franx interconnects Surface brightness, Quasar, Emission spectrum and Effective radius in the investigation of issues within Redshift. His Star formation research incorporates themes from Spectral energy distribution, Balmer series, Extinction, Spiral galaxy and Star.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (98.55%)
  • Galaxy (89.82%)
  • Redshift (53.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Astrophysics (98.55%)
  • Galaxy (89.82%)
  • Redshift (53.09%)

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

Marijn Franx mostly deals with Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Star formation and Stellar mass. His study in the fields of Luminous infrared galaxy, Fundamental plane, Photometry and Quasar under the domain of Astrophysics overlaps with other disciplines such as Absorption. His research on Galaxy concerns the broader Astronomy.

His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Dark matter and Emission spectrum. Marijn Franx studied Star formation and Balmer series that intersect with Gravitation, Radius and Spatially resolved. His Stellar mass research integrates issues from Number density, COSMIC cancer database, Universe and Velocity dispersion.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Forming Compact Massive Galaxies (235 citations)
  • HIGH-PRECISION PHOTOMETRIC REDSHIFTS FROM SPITZER/IRAC: EXTREME [3.6] – [4.5] COLORS IDENTIFY GALAXIES IN THE REDSHIFT RANGE z ∼ 6.6 – 6.9 (121 citations)
  • Galaxy Structure as a Driver of the Star Formation Sequence Slope and Scatter (116 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Milky Way
  • Astronomy

Marijn Franx mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Redshift and Stellar mass. Luminous infrared galaxy and Fundamental plane are among the areas of Astrophysics where he concentrates his study. His Luminous infrared galaxy research focuses on Elliptical galaxy and how it relates to Quasar and Spitzer Space Telescope.

A large part of his Galaxy studies is devoted to Stellar population. His work carried out in the field of Star formation brings together such families of science as Galaxy formation and evolution and Balmer series. Marijn Franx has included themes like Equivalent width and Emission spectrum in his Redshift study.
