Awards & Achievements

2015 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For contributions to the study of radio pulsars, including the measurement of pulsar masses that have constrained the equation of state of ultradense matter, the discovery of many millisecond and binary pulsars, and development of key pulsar algorithms

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Statistics

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Pulsar, Astronomy, Neutron star and Millisecond pulsar. His Fast radio burst, Green Bank Telescope, Galaxy, Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment and Telescope investigations are all subjects of Astrophysics research. His Pulsar study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gravitational wave, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Radio telescope.

His Neutron star study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Globular cluster, Supernova remnant and Solar mass. The Millisecond pulsar study which covers Shapiro delay that intersects with Orbital elements and Quark star. His research in Binary pulsar intersects with topics in LIGO and White dwarf.

His most cited work include:

  • A two-solar-mass neutron star measured using Shapiro delay (2595 citations)
  • A massive pulsar in a compact relativistic binary (2268 citations)
  • THE SECOND FERMI LARGE AREA TELESCOPE CATALOG OF GAMMA-RAY PULSARS (728 citations)

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

Scott M. Ransom spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Pulsar, Millisecond pulsar, Astronomy and Neutron star. Astrophysics is represented through his Green Bank Telescope, Globular cluster, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Telescope and Orbital period research. His Pulsar research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gravitational wave, Radio telescope and White dwarf.

His Gravitational wave study combines topics in areas such as Amplitude, Supermassive black hole and Pulsar timing array. His Millisecond pulsar research includes elements of Luminosity, Observatory, Light curve and Solar mass. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Supernova remnant and Gravitation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (90.19%)
  • Pulsar (88.31%)
  • Millisecond pulsar (50.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (90.19%)
  • Pulsar (88.31%)
  • Millisecond pulsar (50.94%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Pulsar, Millisecond pulsar, Gravitational wave and Astronomy. Neutron star, Fast radio burst, Orbital period, Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment and Radio telescope are the core of his Astrophysics study. Scott M. Ransom mostly deals with Binary pulsar in his studies of Pulsar.

Many of his research projects under Millisecond pulsar are closely connected to Orbit with Orbit, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The concepts of his Gravitational wave study are interwoven with issues in Amplitude, Pulsar timing array and Black hole. His study on Orbital elements and Galactic Center is often connected to Ephemeris as part of broader study in Astronomy.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Relativistic Shapiro delay measurements of an extremely massive millisecond pulsar (528 citations)
  • Relativistic Shapiro delay measurements of an extremely massive millisecond pulsar (479 citations)
  • A second source of repeating fast radio bursts (246 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Statistics

Scott M. Ransom mainly investigates Astrophysics, Pulsar, Gravitational wave, Millisecond pulsar and Observatory. His Pulsar research is classified as research in Astronomy. His Gravitational wave research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Amplitude and Supermassive black hole, Black hole.

His Millisecond pulsar research includes themes of Radio telescope and Jitter. His Observatory research focuses on subjects like Data set, which are linked to Wideband. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Binary pulsar, Green Bank Telescope is strongly linked to Shapiro delay.
