Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy
  • Milky Way

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Galaxy rotation curve, Astronomy and Dark matter. His Astrophysics study is mostly concerned with Surface brightness, Elliptical galaxy, Surface brightness fluctuation, Luminous infrared galaxy and Low-surface-brightness galaxy. Stacy S. McGaugh has included themes like Fundamental plane and Dark galaxy in his Surface brightness fluctuation study.

Many of his studies on Galaxy involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Baryon. The study incorporates disciplines such as Dark fluid, Cold dark matter, Dark matter halo and Structure formation in addition to Galaxy rotation curve. His study in Dark matter is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Radius, Newtonian dynamics, Modified Newtonian dynamics, Spiral galaxy and Gravitation.

His most cited work include:

  • Modified Newtonian dynamics as an alternative to dark matter (665 citations)
  • H II region abundances - Model oxygen line ratios (640 citations)
  • Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND):Observational Phenomenology and Relativistic Extensions (619 citations)

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

Stacy S. McGaugh mainly investigates Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Dark matter and Surface brightness. Galaxy rotation curve, Halo, Baryon, Elliptical galaxy and Star formation are the subjects of his Astrophysics studies. His work in Galaxy rotation curve addresses subjects such as Dark matter halo, which are connected to disciplines such as Scalar field dark matter and Hot dark matter.

He combines topics linked to Stars with his work on Galaxy. He combines subjects such as Cosmology, Modified Newtonian dynamics, Newtonian dynamics and Gravitation with his study of Dark matter. His Surface brightness research integrates issues from Brightness, Low-surface-brightness galaxy, Metallicity and Photometry.
