Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Her main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Elliptical galaxy and Lenticular galaxy. Her Stellar kinematics, Star formation, Virgo Cluster, Milky Way and Surface brightness study are her primary interests in Astrophysics. Her work carried out in the field of Stellar kinematics brings together such families of science as Spectral line, Supermassive black hole and Sigma.

She mostly deals with Galaxy formation and evolution in her studies of Galaxy. Her Elliptical galaxy study combines topics in areas such as Galaxy cluster, Luminous infrared galaxy, Spiral galaxy and Velocity dispersion. Her study looks at the relationship between Lenticular galaxy and topics such as Equivalent width, which overlap with Line.

Her most cited work include:

  • Parametric Recovery of Line‐of‐Sight Velocity Distributions from Absorption‐Line Spectra of Galaxies via Penalized Likelihood (1606 citations)
  • The SAURON project - IV. The mass-to-light ratio, the virial mass estimator and the Fundamental Plane of elliptical and lenticular galaxies (955 citations)
  • Overview of the SDSS-IV MaNGA Survey: Mapping nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (915 citations)

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

Michele Cappellari focuses on Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Elliptical galaxy and Star formation. Astrophysics is a component of her Stellar kinematics, Velocity dispersion, Lenticular galaxy, Stellar population and Stars studies. Michele Cappellari combines subjects such as Dark matter and Sigma with her study of Stellar kinematics.

The concepts of her Stellar population study are interwoven with issues in Metallicity and Initial mass function. Michele Cappellari works mostly in the field of Galaxy, limiting it down to concerns involving Kinematics and, occasionally, Spectrograph. Her Elliptical galaxy research incorporates elements of Galaxy cluster and Luminous infrared galaxy.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (94.29%)
  • Galaxy (82.68%)
  • Astronomy (44.11%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (94.29%)
  • Galaxy (82.68%)
  • Velocity dispersion (18.93%)

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

Astrophysics, Galaxy, Velocity dispersion, Stellar kinematics and Astronomy are her primary areas of study. Her work in Redshift, Stellar mass, Star formation, Stellar population and Black hole is related to Astrophysics. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Spectral line and Fundamental plane.

Her Stellar population study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bulge, Initial mass function and Spiral galaxy. Her Galaxy research includes elements of Observatory and Sky. As part of one scientific family, she deals mainly with the area of Velocity dispersion, narrowing it down to issues related to the Galaxy group, and often Lenticular galaxy and Disc.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (799 citations)
  • The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (753 citations)
  • Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe (728 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

Michele Cappellari spends much of her time researching Galaxy, Astrophysics, Astronomy, Observatory and Sky. Her research on Galaxy frequently links to adjacent areas such as Stars. Her research integrates issues of Kinematics and Emission spectrum in her study of Astrophysics.

Her studies in Observatory integrate themes in fields like Telescope and Quasar. Michele Cappellari focuses mostly in the field of Sky, narrowing it down to topics relating to Data cube and, in certain cases, Baryon. The study incorporates disciplines such as Metallicity and Bulge in addition to Stellar population.
