Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Statistics
  • Galaxy

His primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Supernova, Astronomy, Redshift and Galaxy. His study in Supernova Legacy Survey, Dark energy, Light curve, Stars and Photometry is done as part of Astrophysics. His research ties Hubble's law and Supernova Legacy Survey together.

His Supernova research includes themes of Cosmology, Cosmological constant and White dwarf. His work in Galaxy addresses subjects such as Ejecta, which are connected to disciplines such as Extinction, Chandrasekhar limit, Doubly ionized oxygen and Circumstellar envelope. Omega is integrated with Angular diameter distance, Baryon acoustic oscillations and Age of the universe in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • Measurements of $\Omega$ and $\Lambda$ from 42 high redshift supernovae (13453 citations)
  • Measurements of $\Omega$ and $\Lambda$ from 42 high redshift supernovae (13453 citations)
  • Measurements of Omega and Lambda from 42 High-Redshift Supernovae (12244 citations)

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

Astrophysics, Supernova, Astronomy, Redshift and Galaxy are his primary areas of study. His work on Cosmology, Light curve, Dark energy and Photometry as part of his general Astrophysics study is frequently connected to Type, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His work carried out in the field of Supernova brings together such families of science as Stars, Spectral line, Ultra violet and Supernova Legacy Survey.

His is doing research in Gravitational microlensing, Telescope, White dwarf, Dark matter and Universe, both of which are found in Astronomy. Saul Perlmutter conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Redshift and Omega through his works. His work on Galaxy deals in particular with Galaxy cluster, Star formation, Stellar mass, Luminosity and Milky Way.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (100.65%)
  • Supernova (88.53%)
  • Astronomy (42.24%)

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

  • Astrophysics (100.65%)
  • Supernova (88.53%)
  • Redshift (34.55%)

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

Saul Perlmutter spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Supernova, Redshift, Galaxy and Astronomy. His Cosmology, Galaxy cluster and Dark energy study in the realm of Astrophysics interacts with subjects such as Type. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bayesian framework and Statistical dispersion in addition to Cosmology.

His Supernova research incorporates elements of Light curve, Weak gravitational lensing and Photometry. His research in Light curve tackles topics such as Very Large Telescope which are related to areas like Gravitational lens. His Redshift study focuses on Reionization in particular.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Wide-Field InfrarRed Survey Telescope-Astrophysics Focused Telescope Assets WFIRST-AFTA 2015 Report (663 citations)
  • Confirmation of a Star Formation Bias in Type Ia Supernova Distances and its Effect on the Measurement of the Hubble Constant (166 citations)
  • Confirmation of a Star Formation Bias in Type Ia Supernova Distances and its Effect on the Measurement of the Hubble Constant (166 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Statistics
  • Galaxy

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Supernova, Galaxy, Cosmology and Redshift. His work on Astrophysics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Astronomy. His work on Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope, Gravitational microlensing, Coronagraph and Exoplanet is typically connected to Scheduling as part of general Astronomy study, connecting several disciplines of science.

The concepts of his Supernova study are interwoven with issues in Extinction, Spectral line, Spectral energy distribution and Light curve. He combines subjects such as Bayesian framework, Stellar evolution, Statistical dispersion and Photometric calibration with his study of Cosmology. His Dark energy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in COSMIC cancer database, Space observatory and Chemical evolution.
