2006 - Member of the National Academy of Sciences
2005 - Hans A. Bethe Prize, American Physical Society For his significant and wide ranging contributions in the areas of stellar evolution, element synthesis, the theory of core collapse and type Ia supernovae, and the interpretation of gamma-ray bursts,most notably, the collapsar model of gamma-ray bursts.
2001 - Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences
1987 - Fellow of American Physical Society (APS) Citation For exceptional contributions to our understanding of the evolution of massive stars, supernovae, and X and gammaray bursts, through the calculation of fundamental reaction rates and the application of nuclear physics to astrophysics
His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Astronomy, Supernova, Nucleosynthesis and Neutron star. As part of his studies on Astrophysics, he often connects relevant areas like Neutrino. His Supernova research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Physicist and Cosmology.
His Nucleosynthesis research incorporates elements of Spectral line, Chandrasekhar limit, White dwarf and Solar mass. Within one scientific family, Stan Woosley focuses on topics pertaining to Black hole under Neutron star, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Galaxy. His research in Gamma-ray burst focuses on subjects like Light curve, which are connected to Lorentz factor.
Stan Woosley mostly deals with Astrophysics, Supernova, Stars, Astronomy and Nucleosynthesis. His work on Astrophysics deals in particular with Light curve, Neutron star, Metallicity, Stellar evolution and Black hole. His Supernova study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gamma-ray burst, Luminosity, Neutrino and Solar mass.
His Stars research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Universe, Instability and Angular momentum. His work on White dwarf, Stellar black hole, Stellar mass loss and X-ray binary is typically connected to Population as part of general Astronomy study, connecting several disciplines of science. His study in the field of Stellar nucleosynthesis also crosses realms of Reaction rate.
His main research concerns Supernova, Astrophysics, Stars, Light curve and Astronomy. Stan Woosley works in the field of Supernova, namely Nucleosynthesis. His Nucleosynthesis research incorporates themes from Galaxy and Cosmic ray.
His Turbulence research extends to Astrophysics, which is thematically connected. His work on Stellar evolution as part of general Stars study is frequently linked to Type and Core, bridging the gap between disciplines. He usually deals with Light curve and limits it to topics linked to Shock and Red supergiant, Stellar atmosphere and Shock wave.
Stan Woosley mainly focuses on Supernova, Stars, Astrophysics, Astronomy and Luminosity. His research integrates issues of Gravitational wave and Neutron star in his study of Supernova. His Gravitational wave study incorporates themes from Gamma-ray burst and Supermassive black hole.
When carried out as part of a general Astrophysics research project, his work on Nucleosynthesis, Solar mass and Black hole is frequently linked to work in Type, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Range, Light curve, Magnetar and Brightness in addition to Solar mass. His Luminosity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Radius and Star.
