Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Optics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

His primary scientific interests are in Astronomy, Astrophysics, Exoplanet, Planet and Stars. His Astrophysics research includes elements of Spectral line and Shot noise. René Doyon studies Gemini Planet Imager which is a part of Exoplanet.

His study in Gemini Planet Imager is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Polarimetry, Telescope, Adaptive optics, Coronagraph and Integral field spectrograph. His research ties Transit and Planet together. In the subject of general Stars, his work in Radial velocity, Proper motion, AB Doradus moving group and Low Mass is often linked to Banyan, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Direct imaging of multiple planets orbiting the star HR 8799. (1595 citations)
  • The James Webb Space Telescope (892 citations)
  • Angular Differential Imaging: a Powerful High-Contrast Imaging Technique (879 citations)

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

René Doyon focuses on Astrophysics, Astronomy, Planet, Stars and Exoplanet. His study involves Brown dwarf, Radial velocity, Galaxy, Proper motion and Debris disk, a branch of Astrophysics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Brightness and Solar System in addition to Planet.

His Stars research integrates issues from Luminosity and Infrared. The various areas that René Doyon examines in his Exoplanet study include Optics, Photometry, Astrobiology, James Webb Space Telescope and Giant planet. In his research, Spectral resolution is intimately related to Adaptive optics, which falls under the overarching field of Telescope.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (60.08%)
  • Astronomy (48.44%)
  • Planet (28.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (60.08%)
  • Gemini Planet Imager (22.25%)
  • Planet (28.07%)

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

René Doyon mostly deals with Astrophysics, Gemini Planet Imager, Planet, Astronomy and Exoplanet. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Radiative transfer and Radius. Stars covers René Doyon research in Gemini Planet Imager.

The Planet study combines topics in areas such as Stellar mass, Circular orbit and Radial velocity. In general Astronomy, his work in Spectrograph, James Webb Space Telescope and Telescope is often linked to National laboratory linking many areas of study. René Doyon combines subjects such as Spectral resolution, Brown dwarf and Graduate research with his study of Exoplanet.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey: Giant Planet and Brown Dwarf Demographics from 10 to 100 au (152 citations)
  • The Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey: Giant Planet and Brown Dwarf Demographics From 10-100 AU (138 citations)
  • A Second Terrestrial Planet Orbiting the Nearby M Dwarf LHS 1140 (62 citations)
