Awards & Achievements

2013 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For contributions to particle astrophysics covering gamma ray, neutrino and cosmic ray experiments, especially to the commissioning of a new generation of experiments For elucidating the statistics of the search for anisotropies in the cosmic ray flux and mapping the arrival directions of Galactic cosmic rays in the southern sky using IceCube data

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Electron
  • Neutrino

S. Westerhoff mainly investigates Astrophysics, Neutrino, Cosmic ray, Neutrino detector and Astronomy. His Observatory and Sky study in the realm of Astrophysics connects with subjects such as Flux. His Neutrino research integrates issues from Pion and Muon.

His work carried out in the field of Cosmic ray brings together such families of science as Active galactic nucleus, Detector and Anisotropy. He usually deals with Neutrino detector and limits it to topics linked to Dark matter and Weakly interacting massive particles, Annihilation and Supersymmetry. The concepts of his IceCube Neutrino Observatory study are interwoven with issues in Air shower and Glashow resonance.

His most cited work include:

  • Observation of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos in three years of icecube data (904 citations)
  • First observation of PeV-energy neutrinos with IceCube (585 citations)
  • Observation of the suppression of the flux of cosmic rays above 4x10(19) eV (549 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Neutrino, Astronomy, Cosmic ray and Observatory. In his articles, he combines various disciplines, including Astrophysics and Flux. His Neutrino research focuses on Muon and how it relates to Spectral line.

His work deals with themes such as Detector and Anisotropy, which intersect with Cosmic ray. S. Westerhoff works mostly in the field of Observatory, limiting it down to topics relating to Milagro and, in certain cases, Cherenkov detector, as a part of the same area of interest. S. Westerhoff works mostly in the field of Neutrino detector, limiting it down to concerns involving Solar neutrino problem and, occasionally, Measurements of neutrino speed.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (65.35%)
  • Neutrino (50.17%)
  • Astronomy (38.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Astrophysics (65.35%)
  • Neutrino (50.17%)
  • Astronomy (38.61%)

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

Astrophysics, Neutrino, Astronomy, Observatory and IceCube Neutrino Observatory are his primary areas of study. Gamma ray, Dark matter, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma-ray burst and Sky are the subjects of his Astrophysics studies. In general Neutrino study, his work on Neutrino detector, Muon neutrino and Solar neutrino problem often relates to the realm of Flux, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

He combines subjects such as Cherenkov radiation, Cosmic ray, Air shower and Pulsar with his study of Observatory. His studies in Cosmic ray integrate themes in fields like Range and Galactic halo. His IceCube Neutrino Observatory study incorporates themes from Measurements of neutrino speed, Galactic plane, Detector and Muon.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The IceCube Neutrino Observatory: Instrumentation and Online Systems (227 citations)
  • Extended gamma-ray sources around pulsars constrain the origin of the positron flux at Earth (174 citations)
  • The 2HWC HAWC Observatory Gamma-Ray Catalog (160 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Electron
  • Neutrino

S. Westerhoff mostly deals with Neutrino, Astrophysics, Astronomy, Observatory and Flux. His Neutrino study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Particle physics. His Astronomy study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Neutrino detector.

His Observatory study combines topics in areas such as Cherenkov radiation and Telescope. S. Westerhoff interconnects Neutrino astronomy, Solar neutrino problem and Solar neutrino in the investigation of issues within IceCube Neutrino Observatory. His research investigates the connection between Gamma ray and topics such as Cosmic ray that intersect with problems in Galaxy.
