Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Galaxy
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Galaxy formation and evolution and Star formation. His study in Metallicity, Redshift, Stellar mass, Cold dark matter and Galaxy merger falls within the category of Astrophysics. His work deals with themes such as Cosmology, Quasar and Black hole, which intersect with Redshift.

His research links Dark matter with Galaxy. His Galaxy formation and evolution research includes elements of Galaxy cluster, Active galactic nucleus, Halo mass function and Galactic halo. His Star formation research includes themes of Stellar mass loss and Supernova.

His most cited work include:

  • The EAGLE project: Simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments (1954 citations)
  • The EAGLE project: Simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments (1954 citations)
  • A luminous quasar at a redshift of z = 7.085 (1195 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Galaxy formation and evolution. His works in Star formation, Dark matter, Stellar mass, Quasar and Halo are all subjects of inquiry into Astrophysics. His Star formation research focuses on Supernova and how it connects with Radiative cooling.

He combines topics linked to Stars with his work on Galaxy. The concepts of his Redshift study are interwoven with issues in Spectral line and Baryon. His Galaxy formation and evolution study combines topics in areas such as Luminosity, Cold dark matter, Galaxy cluster and Galactic halo.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (131.63%)
  • Galaxy (85.66%)
  • Astronomy (64.83%)

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

  • Astrophysics (131.63%)
  • Galaxy (85.66%)
  • Astronomy (64.83%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Galaxy, Astronomy, Redshift and Star formation. His study in Stellar mass, Galaxy formation and evolution, Dark matter, Halo and Active galactic nucleus are all subfields of Astrophysics. Tom Theuns interconnects Specific relative angular momentum and Dark matter halo in the investigation of issues within Galaxy formation and evolution.

His work in Galaxy addresses subjects such as Stars, which are connected to disciplines such as Ionization. His research integrates issues of Universe, Infrared, Quasar, Ion and Radiative transfer in his study of Redshift. His Star formation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Luminosity, Supernova, Black hole and Reionization.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The APOSTLE simulations: solutions to the Local Group's cosmic puzzles (408 citations)
  • The EAGLE simulations of galaxy formation: Public release of halo and galaxy catalogues (282 citations)
  • Bimodality of low-redshift circumgalactic O VI in non-equilibrium EAGLE zoom simulations (148 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy

His primary scientific interests are in Astrophysics, Astronomy, Galaxy, Stellar mass and Galaxy formation and evolution. Dark matter, Luminous infrared galaxy, Metallicity, Galaxy rotation curve and Active galactic nucleus are subfields of Astrophysics in which his conducts study. His Galaxy study focuses mostly on Redshift, Star formation, Halo, Local Group and Dark matter halo.

His Redshift study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ion and Ionization. His Star formation research includes elements of Accretion and Black hole. The concepts of his Stellar mass study are interwoven with issues in Stellar mass loss, Baryon, Angular momentum and Disc galaxy.
