2015 - Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics For the most unexpected discovery that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, rather than slowing as had been long assumed.
2011 - Nobel Prize for the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the Universe through observations of distant supernovae
2007 - Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences
2003 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
2002 - Member of the National Academy of Sciences
2000 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For pioneering contributions to cosmology, including development of new search techniques that led to discovery of numerous distant supernovae and strong evidence for the accelerated expansion of the universe
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.
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.
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.
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.
