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

His primary areas of investigation include Astrophysics, Solar flare, Electron, Astronomy and Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Vahé Petrosian studied Astrophysics and Particle acceleration that intersect with Magnetic reconnection. As a member of one scientific family, Vahé Petrosian mostly works in the field of Solar flare, focusing on Spectral line and, on occasion, Synchrotron.

His Electron study combines topics in areas such as Radiation, Computational physics, Acceleration and Plasma. His study of Galaxy is a part of Astronomy. His Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Blazar, Telescope, Spitzer Space Telescope and Cosmic ray.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (80.05%)
  • Solar flare (30.17%)
  • Electron (23.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (80.05%)
  • Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (19.46%)
  • Solar flare (30.17%)

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

Vahé Petrosian mainly investigates Astrophysics, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Solar flare, Gamma ray and Astronomy. His work on Astrophysics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Spectral line. His work carried out in the field of Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope brings together such families of science as Galaxy, Telescope and Blazar.

The Solar flare study combines topics in areas such as Bremsstrahlung, Electron, Particle acceleration, Coronal mass ejection and Radiative transfer. His studies deal with areas such as Intracluster medium, Acceleration and Plasma as well as Electron. He interconnects Universe and Light curve in the investigation of issues within Gamma-ray burst.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • GeV observations of star-forming galaxies with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (325 citations)
  • GeV Observations of Star-forming Galaxies with extit{Fermi} LAT (319 citations)
  • The spectrum and morphology of the Fermi bubbles (270 citations)

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

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics

Vahé Petrosian focuses on Astrophysics, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Gamma ray, Astronomy and Redshift. Vahé Petrosian combines topics linked to Spectral line with his work on Astrophysics. He has researched Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope in several fields, including Telescope, Cosmic ray, Galactic halo and Blazar.

His Astronomy study deals with Gamma-ray astronomy intersecting with Galaxy groups and clusters, Star cluster and Coma Cluster. The study incorporates disciplines such as Star formation and Photon in addition to Redshift. His Solar flare research includes themes of Coronal mass ejection, Particle acceleration and Flare.
