Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Magnetosphere
  • Jupiter

Magnetosphere, Magnetosphere of Saturn, Saturn, Geophysics and Astronomy are her primary areas of study. Her work deals with themes such as Astrobiology, Solar wind and Current sheet, which intersect with Magnetosphere. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rotation period, Cyclotron, Astrophysics, Magnetosphere of Jupiter and High latitude.

Her Astrophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Amplitude, Field line and Polar. The concepts of her Saturn study are interwoven with issues in L-shell, Enceladus, Plasma sheet, Rotation and Atomic physics. Her work on Ionosphere as part of her general Geophysics study is frequently connected to Local time, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

Her most cited work include:

  • Regulation of Raf-1 by Direct Feedback Phosphorylation (474 citations)
  • The Cassini Magnetic Field Investigation (411 citations)
  • Unlocking the code of 14-3-3 (406 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Magnetosphere, Saturn, Astronomy, Astrophysics and Geophysics. Her research in Magnetosphere tackles topics such as Ionosphere which are related to areas like Titan. Her research integrates issues of Ring current, Computational physics, Enceladus and Solar wind in her study of Saturn.

Her research investigates the link between Astronomy and topics such as Astrobiology that cross with problems in Icy moon and Exploration of Jupiter. Michele K. Dougherty works mostly in the field of Astrophysics, limiting it down to topics relating to Bow shock and, in certain cases, Shock. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Field line, Magnetometer and Plasma sheet.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Magnetosphere (51.04%)
  • Saturn (43.85%)
  • Astronomy (33.18%)

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

  • Magnetosphere (51.04%)
  • Astronomy (33.18%)
  • Saturn (43.85%)

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

Michele K. Dougherty focuses on Magnetosphere, Astronomy, Saturn, Saturn and Astrophysics. Her Magnetosphere research also works with subjects such as

  • Noon which is related to area like Zonal and meridional,
  • Jupiter that intertwine with fields like Astrobiology. In general Astronomy, her work in Azimuthal magnetic field, Planetary Data System and Space physics is often linked to Ring linking many areas of study.

She interconnects Ionosphere, Geophysics, Current sheet, Magnetic reconnection and Solar wind in the investigation of issues within Saturn. Her study in the field of Magnetopause and Magnetosphere of Saturn is also linked to topics like Oscillation. In her work, Plasma sheet and Amplitude is strongly intertwined with Equator, which is a subfield of Astrophysics.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Interplanetary coronal mass ejection observed at STEREO‐A, Mars, comet 67P/Churyumov‐Gerasimenko, Saturn, and New Horizons en route to Pluto: Comparison of its Forbush decreases at 1.4, 3.1, and 9.9 AU (58 citations)
  • Saturn's magnetic field revealed by the Cassini Grand Finale. (54 citations)
  • Radial and local time structure of the Saturnian ring current, revealed by Cassini (31 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Solar System
  • Jupiter

Her primary scientific interests are in Saturn, Magnetosphere, Astronomy, Solar wind and Astrophysics. Her Saturn research includes elements of Astrobiology, Enceladus, Noon, Hiss and Ionosphere. Her Magnetosphere study incorporates themes from Computational physics, Geophysics, Planet, Current sheet and Magnetic reconnection.

Her study looks at the intersection of Current sheet and topics like Rotation period with Magnetosphere of Saturn. Her study in Astronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Van Allen radiation belt, Charged particle and Jet propulsion. In her study, Differential rotation and Polar is inextricably linked to Dynamo, which falls within the broad field of Astrophysics.
