Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock
  • Geochemistry

Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Mars Exploration Program, Martian and Basalt are her primary areas of study. Her Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Inorganic chemistry and Troilite. All of her Geochemistry and Mafic and Zircon investigations are sub-components of the entire Geochemistry study.

The various areas that she examines in her Mars Exploration Program study include Spectrometer and Ultramafic rock. Her Martian research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Planetary science, Earth science and Meteorite. Her Basalt research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Diagenesis and Weathering.

Her most cited work include:

  • Characterization and Origin of Aluminous A-type Granites from the Lachlan Fold Belt, Southeastern Australia (696 citations)
  • SIMS analysis of volatiles in silicate glasses. 1. Calibration, matrix effects and comparisons with FTIR (286 citations)
  • Volatile and organic compositions of sedimentary rocks in Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars. (250 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Mineralogy, Mars Exploration Program, Analytical chemistry, Geochemistry and Materials science. Her research investigates the connection between Mineralogy and topics such as Basalt that intersect with issues in Diagenesis. Her work in the fields of Mars Exploration Program, such as Martian and Alpha particle X-ray spectrometer, overlaps with other areas such as Environmental science.

Her Martian surface study, which is part of a larger body of work in Martian, is frequently linked to Composition of Mars, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her Analytical chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spectroscopy, Spectral line, Infrared and Silicate. Her Geochemistry study deals with Rocknest intersecting with Sample Analysis at Mars.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Mineralogy (51.33%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (44.67%)
  • Analytical chemistry (44.67%)

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

  • Astrobiology (21.33%)
  • Materials science (27.33%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (44.67%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Astrobiology, Materials science, Mars Exploration Program, Gas solid and Political science. Her study in the field of Martian, Search for extraterrestrial intelligence and Extraterrestrial life is also linked to topics like Cyberinfrastructure. Her Mars Exploration Program research focuses on Gale crater in particular.

As a part of the same scientific family, Penelope L. King mostly works in the field of Gale crater, focusing on Elemental composition and, on occasion, Geochemistry. Penelope L. King combines subjects such as Mining engineering and Vein with her study of Geochemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Volcano, Volcanic Gases, Sulfur dioxide, Silicate and Albite in addition to Analytical chemistry.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Volcanic gas composition, metal dispersion and deposition during explosive volcanic eruptions on the Moon (38 citations)
  • Gas–Solid Reactions: Theory, Experiments and Case Studies Relevant to Earth and Planetary Processes (26 citations)
  • SO2 Gas Reactions with Silicate Glasses (20 citations)

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

  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock
  • Geochemistry

Penelope L. King spends much of her time researching Astrobiology, Political science, Research council, Earth and Materials science. In the subject of general Astrobiology, her work in Martian surface and Mars Exploration Program is often linked to Environmental science, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Her Political science research incorporates elements of Mineral formation, Basalt, Commonwealth, Library science and Scholarship.

Among her research on Research council, you can see a combination of other fields of science like Silicate glass and Work. She conducted interdisciplinary study in her works that combined Earth and Gas solid.
