Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astrophysics

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Astronomy, Young stellar object, Milky Way and Galaxy. He has researched Astrophysics in several fields, including Wavelength and Radiative transfer. His Young stellar object study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Stars.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Milky Way, Extinction are connected with Disc, Scutum–Centaurus Arm and Star count and other disciplines. His study explores the link between Galaxy and topics such as Spitzer Space Telescope that cross with problems in Large Magellanic Cloud and Asymptotic giant branch. His Galactic plane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Protostar and Infrared.

His most cited work include:

  • Astropy: A community Python package for astronomy (5586 citations)
  • The Astropy Project: Building an inclusive, open-science project and status of the v2.0 core package (1975 citations)
  • The Astropy Project: Building an Open-science Project and Status of the v2.0 Core Package (1939 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Astronomy, Star formation, Stars and Young stellar object. His research on Astrophysics often connects related topics like Radiative transfer. His study in the field of Atmospheric radiative transfer codes also crosses realms of Monte Carlo method.

His work in Star formation addresses issues such as Molecular cloud, which are connected to fields such as Circumstellar dust. Thomas P. Robitaille focuses mostly in the field of Stars, narrowing it down to topics relating to Infrared and, in certain cases, Spectrograph. His Young stellar object study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Spectral line, Protostar, Galactic Center and Photometry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (80.00%)
  • Astronomy (40.00%)
  • Star formation (36.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
