Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen
  • Organic chemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Martian, Mineralogy and Perchlorate. His Mars Exploration Program research focuses on Environmental chemistry and how it connects with Carbon dioxide. The various areas that Richard C. Quinn examines in his Astrobiology study include Sulfate and Supersaturation.

His Martian study incorporates themes from Organic matter, Ultraviolet, Regolith and Exploration of Mars. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Calcium carbonate, Endothermic process, Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere and Calcium. The concepts of his Perchlorate study are interwoven with issues in Martian soil and Wet chemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Detection of Perchlorate and the Soluble Chemistry of Martian Soil at the Phoenix Lander Site (646 citations)
  • Mars-like soils in the Atacama Desert, Chile, and the dry limit of microbial life (409 citations)
  • Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (293 citations)

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

Richard C. Quinn spends much of his time researching Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program, Environmental science, Martian and Mineralogy. Richard C. Quinn combines subjects such as Perchlorate and Space environment with his study of Astrobiology. Richard C. Quinn has researched Mars Exploration Program in several fields, including Environmental chemistry, Atmosphere and Regolith.

His Atmosphere of Mars and CRISM study in the realm of Martian connects with subjects such as Sample Analysis at Mars. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Calcium carbonate, Endothermic process, Carbonate and Analytical chemistry. His research in Martian soil intersects with topics in Sulfate and Wet chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrobiology (46.72%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (49.18%)
  • Environmental science (23.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Astrobiology (46.72%)
  • Life detection (4.92%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (49.18%)

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

Richard C. Quinn spends much of his time researching Astrobiology, Life detection, Mars Exploration Program, Electrochemistry and Enceladus. Martian and Planetary science are the subjects of his Astrobiology studies. His work on Martian surface as part of his general Martian study is frequently connected to Sample Analysis at Mars and Deinococcus radiodurans, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His Mars Exploration Program research incorporates themes from Titan and Library science. His studies deal with areas such as Chemical energy, Molecule and Nicotinamide as well as Electrochemistry. His Enceladus research includes themes of Characterization, Redox, Chemical engineering and In situ.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Earth as a Tool for Astrobiology : A European Perspective (31 citations)
  • Space as a Tool for Astrobiology: Review and Recommendations for Experimentations in Earth Orbit and Beyond (25 citations)
  • Astrobiology and the Possibility of Life on Earth and Elsewhere... (23 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen
  • Organic chemistry

Richard C. Quinn mainly focuses on Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program, Planet, Planetary science and Sample Analysis at Mars. His EXPOSE study, which is part of a larger body of work in Astrobiology, is frequently linked to Outreach, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work on Library science expands to the thematically related Mars Exploration Program.

His Planet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Extraterrestrial life, Abiogenesis and Search for extraterrestrial intelligence. His Planetary science research integrates issues from Exoplanetology, Solar System, Astrobiology Science and Technology for Exploring Planets, Origin of water on Earth and Field. The Martian study combines topics in areas such as Carbon, Pyrolysis and Mars landing.
