Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Astrophysics

N. W. Halverson spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Cosmic microwave background, South Pole Telescope, Astronomy and Redshift. His Astrophysics research focuses on subjects like Cosmic Background Imager, which are linked to Very Small Array. N. W. Halverson has included themes like Neutrino and Spectral density in his Cosmic microwave background study.

His study on South Pole Telescope also encompasses disciplines like

  • Sunyaev–Zel'dovich effect together with ROSAT,
  • Hubble's law which is related to area like CMB cold spot. He studied Astronomy and Cosmic infrared background that intersect with Planck. His work carried out in the field of Redshift brings together such families of science as Field of view, Aperture, Millimeter, Optics and Star formation.

His most cited work include:

  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole (1011 citations)
  • Degree Angular Scale Interferometer First Results: A Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Angular Power Spectrum (661 citations)
  • DASI First Results: A Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Angular Power Spectrum (606 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Cosmic microwave background, Astrophysics, South Pole Telescope, Astronomy and Optics. N. W. Halverson does research in Cosmic microwave background, focusing on Cosmic background radiation specifically. His Astrophysics research includes elements of Spectral density and Cluster.

The Spectral density study combines topics in areas such as Amplitude, Spectral line, Cold dark matter and Anisotropy. His study in South Pole Telescope is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sky, Cosmic infrared background, Planck, Neutrino and Multiplexing. His Galaxy cluster research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cosmology, Dark energy and Weak gravitational lensing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cosmic microwave background (66.67%)
  • Astrophysics (63.89%)
  • South Pole Telescope (48.74%)

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

  • Cosmic microwave background (66.67%)
  • Astrophysics (63.89%)
  • South Pole Telescope (48.74%)

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

N. W. Halverson mainly investigates Cosmic microwave background, Astrophysics, South Pole Telescope, Optics and Polarization. His work deals with themes such as Gravitational wave, Astronomy, Sky and Telescope, which intersect with Cosmic microwave background. His study in the field of Satellite, Lagrangian point and Inflation also crosses realms of Project plan.

His research links Spectral density with Astrophysics. N. W. Halverson works mostly in the field of South Pole Telescope, limiting it down to concerns involving Radio spectrum and, occasionally, Antenna array. His Polarization research incorporates themes from COSMIC cancer database, Angular resolution and Neutrino.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole (1011 citations)
  • First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. II. Array and Instrumentation (305 citations)
  • LiteBIRD: A Satellite for the Studies of B-Mode Polarization and Inflation from Cosmic Background Radiation Detection (141 citations)
