Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Solar wind

R. A. Frahm focuses on Mars Exploration Program, Ionosphere, Martian, Astrobiology and Solar wind. The Mars Exploration Program study which covers Coronal mass ejection that intersects with Astronomy and Venus. His Martian research incorporates themes from Field line, Atmosphere, Atmospheric sciences and Astrophysics.

The various areas that he examines in his Atmosphere study include Computational physics and Charged particle. His study in the fields of Solar System and Planet under the domain of Astrophysics overlaps with other disciplines such as Electron spectrometer. R. A. Frahm usually deals with Solar wind and limits it to topics linked to Magnetosphere and Atomic physics and Electron density.

His most cited work include:

  • The Analyser of Space Plasmas and Energetic Atoms (ASPERA-4) for the Venus Express mission (293 citations)
  • Solar Wind-Induced Atmospheric Erosion at Mars: First Results from ASPERA-3 on Mars Express (168 citations)
  • The loss of ions from Venus through the plasma wake (141 citations)

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

Mars Exploration Program, Solar wind, Martian, Ionosphere and Astrobiology are his primary areas of study. His Mars Exploration Program research integrates issues from Energetic neutral atom and Computational physics. His Solar wind study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Astrophysics, Magnetosphere and Geophysics.

His work carried out in the field of Magnetosphere brings together such families of science as Energy flux and Atomic physics. His Ionosphere research includes themes of Atmosphere, Photoelectric effect, Atmospheric sciences, Venus and Electron density. His studies in Astrobiology integrate themes in fields like Planet, Interplanetary spaceflight and Magnetic anomaly.

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mars Exploration Program, Solar wind, Geophysics, Venus and Astrophysics. The concepts of his Mars Exploration Program study are interwoven with issues in Bow shock, Ionosphere and Atomic physics. His Ionosphere study combines topics in areas such as Astrophysical plasma, Computational physics and Atmosphere.

His work deals with themes such as Spacecraft, Astronomy, Martian, Atmospheric sciences and Magnetosphere, which intersect with Solar wind. His Astrophysics study incorporates themes from Coronal mass ejection and Titan. R. A. Frahm interconnects Planet and Interplanetary spaceflight in the investigation of issues within Astrobiology.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Strong coronal channelling and interplanetary evolution of a solar storm up to Earth and Mars (117 citations)
  • Characterizing cometary electrons with kappa distributions (46 citations)
  • Suprathermal electron environment of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: Observations from the Rosetta Ion and Electron Sensor (46 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Solar wind
  • Optics

R. A. Frahm mainly investigates Solar wind, Venus, Mars Exploration Program, Astronomy and Astrophysics. His work on Coronal mass ejection is typically connected to Population as part of general Solar wind study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Venus research includes themes of Ionosphere and Ambipolar diffusion.

His research in Ionosphere intersects with topics in Atmosphere of Venus and Titan. Much of his study explores Mars Exploration Program relationship to Atmospheric sciences. His Astronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Astrobiology and Health threat from cosmic rays.
