Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Astrophysics

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Astronomy, Brown dwarf, Planetary system and Stars. Astrophysics and Infrared are frequently intertwined in his study. He interconnects Initial mass function, Luminosity, Surface gravity, Proper motion and Low Mass in the investigation of issues within Brown dwarf.

His Planetary system research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Exoplanet, Thick disk, Cosmic dust, Spiral galaxy and Protoplanet. His study in Stars is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Primary and Jupiter. In his study, Planetary mass is strongly linked to Accretion, which falls under the umbrella field of Planet.

His most cited work include:

  • VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV): The public ESO near-IR variability survey of the Milky Way (727 citations)
  • The UKIDSS galactic plane survey (458 citations)
  • INTERSTELLAR EXTINCTION LAW TOWARD THE GALACTIC CENTER III: J, H, KS BANDS IN THE 2MASS AND THE MKO SYSTEMS, AND 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0 μm IN THE SPITZER/IRAC SYSTEM (394 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Astronomy, Stars, Planet and Exoplanet. His Astrophysics research includes themes of Polarization and Near-infrared spectroscopy. The various areas that Motohide Tamura examines in his Polarization study include Wavelength, Reflection nebula and Molecular cloud.

The Planet study combines topics in areas such as Orbital period, Radius, Radial velocity and Transit. In his work, Integral field spectrograph is strongly intertwined with Optics, which is a subfield of Exoplanet. His Brown dwarf research integrates issues from Stellar classification and Photometry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (79.47%)
  • Astronomy (47.97%)
  • Stars (28.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (79.47%)
  • Planet (29.25%)
  • Exoplanet (23.31%)

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

Motohide Tamura focuses on Astrophysics, Planet, Exoplanet, Stars and Polarization. His Astrophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Wavelength, Near-infrared spectroscopy and Polarimetry. His Planet study also includes fields such as

  • Radial velocity together with Gas giant,
  • Orbital period and related Radius.

His Exoplanet study is concerned with the larger field of Astronomy. Motohide Tamura interconnects Spectral line, Position angle and Primary in the investigation of issues within Stars. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, Bolometer, Ophiuchus and Sky.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Eccentric Cavity, Triple Rings, Two-armed Spirals, and Double Clumps of the MWC 758 Disk (113 citations)
  • Planetary system around the nearby M dwarf GJ 357 including a transiting, hot, Earth-sized planet optimal for atmospheric characterization (59 citations)
  • Three Small Planets Transiting a Hyades Star (48 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Astrophysics

Motohide Tamura mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Planet, Polarization, Stars and Exoplanet. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Wavelength and Astrophysics. His Planet study deals with the bigger picture of Astronomy.

His work investigates the relationship between Polarization and topics such as Turbulence that intersect with problems in Mach number. His Stars research focuses on Position angle and how it connects with Circumbinary planet. The various areas that he examines in his Exoplanet study include Telescope, Optics, Subaru Telescope, Orbital period and Photometry.
