Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Astrophysics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Elliptical galaxy and Luminous infrared galaxy. Redshift, Galaxy formation and evolution, Radio galaxy, Redshift survey and Quasar are subfields of Astrophysics in which her conducts study. She works mostly in the field of Redshift, limiting it down to concerns involving Photometry and, occasionally, Photometric redshift.

Extended Groth Strip, Star formation, Galaxy merger, Velocity dispersion and Telescope are among the areas of Astronomy where the researcher is concentrating her efforts. Her research in Elliptical galaxy intersects with topics in Globular cluster and Galaxy groups and clusters. In her study, Hubble Deep Field is strongly linked to Disc, which falls under the umbrella field of Luminous infrared galaxy.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Demography of massive dark objects in galaxy centers (3512 citations)
  • A Relationship between Nuclear Black Hole Mass and Galaxy Velocity Dispersion (3461 citations)
  • THE SLOPE OF THE BLACK HOLE MASS VERSUS VELOCITY DISPERSION CORRELATION (2496 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Star formation. Her Elliptical galaxy, Galaxy formation and evolution, Stellar mass, Redshift survey and Luminous infrared galaxy study are her primary interests in Astrophysics. Her research combines Stars and Galaxy.

Lenticular galaxy, Galaxy merger, Galaxy group, Radio galaxy and Brightest cluster galaxy are the subjects of her Astronomy studies. Her Redshift research includes themes of Extended Groth Strip, Radius, Spectral line, Emission spectrum and Photometry. Her Star formation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Stellar evolution and Surface brightness.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (92.39%)
  • Galaxy (72.08%)
  • Astronomy (45.69%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (92.39%)
  • Galaxy (72.08%)
  • Redshift (38.07%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Stellar mass and Star formation. Her work deals with themes such as Astronomy and Radius, which intersect with Astrophysics. Her studies deal with areas such as Spectral line, Emission spectrum, Metallicity and Hubble space telescope as well as Redshift.

The concepts of her Star formation study are interwoven with issues in Compact star, Stellar evolution and Velocity dispersion. Her Galaxy formation and evolution study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Supermassive black hole and Black hole. The Galaxy merger study which covers Lenticular galaxy that intersects with Interacting galaxy.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The Herschel view of the dominant mode of galaxy growth from z = 4 to the present day (556 citations)
  • Compaction and quenching of high-z galaxies in cosmological simulations: blue and red nuggets (368 citations)
  • Type Ia Supernova Distances at Redshift > 1.5 from the Hubble Space Telescope Multi-cycle Treasury Programs: The Early Expansion Rate (139 citations)

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

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

Her primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Redshift, Astronomy and Stellar mass. Her work is connected to Star formation, Photometry, Supernova, Baryon and Quasar, as a part of Astrophysics. While the research belongs to areas of Galaxy, she spends her time largely on the problem of Stars, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Photometric redshift.

Her Redshift study combines topics in areas such as Extended Groth Strip, Telescope and Hubble space telescope. Astronomy is a component of her Luminous infrared galaxy, Elliptical galaxy and Galaxy merger studies. The various areas that Sandra M. Faber examines in her Galaxy formation and evolution study include Stellar population, Metallicity and Infrared excess.
