Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Star formation and Galaxy formation and evolution. Elliptical galaxy, Stellar mass, Lenticular galaxy, Virgo Cluster and Redshift are the core of his Astrophysics study. The various areas that Thorsten Naab examines in his Galaxy study include Stars and Dark matter.

In general Astronomy study, his work on Galaxy merger, Spiral galaxy, Velocity dispersion and Surface brightness often relates to the realm of Population, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His studies deal with areas such as Line, Metallicity and Molecular cloud as well as Star formation. He usually deals with Galaxy formation and evolution and limits it to topics linked to Halo and Virial theorem.

His most cited work include:

  • Galactic star formation and accretion histories from matching galaxies to dark matter haloes (1057 citations)
  • The ATLAS3D project – I. A volume-limited sample of 260 nearby early-type galaxies: science goals and selection criteria (886 citations)
  • The Milky Way’s Circular Velocity Curve to 60 kpc and an Estimate of the Dark Matter Halo Mass from the Kinematics of ~2400 SDSS Blue Horizontal-Branch Stars (688 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Star formation and Elliptical galaxy. His Galaxy formation and evolution, Redshift, Stars, Stellar mass and Velocity dispersion investigations are all subjects of Astrophysics research. Thorsten Naab works mostly in the field of Stellar mass, limiting it down to concerns involving Metallicity and, occasionally, Stellar population.

His Galaxy research focuses on Dark matter and how it connects with Dark matter halo and Baryon. The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular cloud, Line, Halo, Supernova and Interstellar medium in addition to Star formation. His Elliptical galaxy research incorporates elements of Mass ratio and Anisotropy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (94.56%)
  • Galaxy (73.22%)
  • Astronomy (42.68%)

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

  • Astrophysics (94.56%)
  • Galaxy (73.22%)
  • Star formation (39.75%)

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

Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Redshift and Supernova are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Radiative transfer and Magnetic field. His Galaxy study focuses mostly on Halo, Stellar mass, Accretion, Galaxy formation and evolution and Stellar kinematics.

His work focuses on many connections between Stellar mass and other disciplines, such as Low Mass, that overlap with his field of interest in Galaxy merger. His Star formation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Satellite galaxy, Luminosity, Active galactic nucleus and Star. His Redshift research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Primary and Bulge.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • PHIBSS: Unified Scaling Relations of Gas Depletion Time and Molecular Gas Fractions (363 citations)
  • EMERGE – an empirical model for the formation of galaxies since z ∼ 10 (158 citations)
  • PHIBSS2: survey design and z = 0.5 – 0.8 results Molecular gas reservoirs during the winding-down of star formation (58 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Galaxy, Star formation, Redshift and Supernova. Thorsten Naab regularly links together related areas like Sigma in his Astrophysics studies. Many of his studies on Galaxy apply to Radius as well.

His Star formation study frequently involves adjacent topics like Halo. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Supernova, Plasma and Cosmic dust is strongly linked to Interstellar medium. The subject of his Velocity dispersion research is within the realm of Astronomy.
