What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Quantum mechanics
- Galaxy
- Astronomy
Michael Boylan-Kolchin mainly investigates Astrophysics, Dark matter, Astronomy, Galaxy and Milky Way.
His work in Galaxy formation and evolution, Stellar mass, Dark matter halo, Local Group and Halo are all subfields of Astrophysics research.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Galaxy formation and evolution, Bulge are connected with Satellite galaxy and other disciplines.
His work carried out in the field of Dark matter brings together such families of science as Cosmology, Low Mass, Redshift and Virial mass.
His studies examine the connections between Galaxy and genetics, as well as such issues in Supernova, with regards to Accretion.
In his study, Quasar is inextricably linked to Dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which falls within the broad field of Milky Way.
His most cited work include:
- Too big to fail? The puzzling darkness of massive Milky Way subhaloes (1051 citations)
- From dwarf spheroidals to cD galaxies: simulating the galaxy population in a ΛCDM cosmology (1007 citations)
- From dwarf spheroidals to cDs: Simulating the galaxy population in a LCDM cosmology (991 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Dark matter and Milky Way.
His studies in Dwarf galaxy, Star formation, Halo, Stellar mass and Galaxy formation and evolution are all subfields of Astrophysics research.
His Dwarf galaxy study combines topics in areas such as Galaxy rotation curve, Metallicity, Baryon and Velocity dispersion.
In general Galaxy, his work in Local Group, Reionization and Dark matter halo is often linked to Population linking many areas of study.
His research integrates issues of Cosmology, Low Mass, Redshift and Structure formation in his study of Dark matter.
