Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Asteroid

Takahiro Hiroi spends much of his time researching Meteorite, Chondrite, Mineralogy, Asteroid and Astrobiology. His research in the fields of Parent body and Meteoritics overlaps with other disciplines such as Population. As part of one scientific family, Takahiro Hiroi deals mainly with the area of Chondrite, narrowing it down to issues related to the Spectral line, and often Absorption band, Analytical chemistry, Astrophysics, Brightness and Reflectivity.

Takahiro Hiroi has included themes like Surface roughness, Enstatite and Grain size in his Mineralogy study. His studies deal with areas such as Howardite, Spectrometer, Near-infrared spectroscopy and Diogenite as well as Asteroid. His work carried out in the field of Astrobiology brings together such families of science as Albedo and Igneous rock.

His most cited work include:

  • Chelyabinsk airburst, damage assessment, meteorite recovery, and characterization (378 citations)
  • Production of iron nanoparticles by laser irradiation in a simulation of lunar-like space weathering (279 citations)
  • The global distribution of pure anorthosite on the Moon (196 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Asteroid, Astrobiology, Meteorite, Mineralogy and Space weathering. His Asteroid study also includes fields such as

  • Reflectivity which intersects with area such as Remote sensing,
  • Near-infrared spectroscopy which is related to area like Spectrometer. His work in the fields of Astrobiology, such as Mars Exploration Program, intersects with other areas such as Surface.

His Meteorite study incorporates themes from Spectroscopy and Geochemistry. The concepts of his Mineralogy study are interwoven with issues in Spectral line, Mineral and Absorption band. His Space weathering research includes elements of Impact crater, Laser, Regolith and Micrometeorite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Asteroid (40.93%)
  • Astrobiology (36.81%)
  • Meteorite (33.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Asteroid (40.93%)
  • Astrobiology (36.81%)
  • Meteorite (33.79%)

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

Asteroid, Astrobiology, Meteorite, Surface and Space weathering are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Spectral line, Impact crater, Chondrite and Astrophysics as well as Asteroid. He works on Astrobiology which deals in particular with Phaeton.

Much of his study explores Meteorite relationship to Mineral. He has included themes like Environmental chemistry, Mineralogy and Sulfur in his Space weathering study. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Brightness and Near-infrared spectroscopy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The geomorphology, color, and thermal properties of Ryugu: Implications for parent-body processes (145 citations)
  • The surface composition of asteroid 162173 Ryugu from Hayabusa2 near-infrared spectroscopy (122 citations)
  • Sample collection from asteroid (162173) Ryugu by Hayabusa2: Implications for surface evolution (28 citations)

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

  • Asteroid
  • Astronomy
  • Optics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Asteroid, Meteorite, Astrobiology, Astrophysics and Chondrite. His work on Space weathering as part of his general Asteroid study is frequently connected to Clan, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. As part of his studies on Meteorite, Takahiro Hiroi often connects relevant areas like Mineralogy.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Absorption and Near-infrared spectroscopy in addition to Mineralogy. His Astrobiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Destiny and Mineral. He has researched Chondrite in several fields, including Breccia and Olivine.
