Overview

Vincenzo Mainieri is affiliated with the European Southern Observatory in Germany and has a significant presence in the field of Physics and Astronomy, contributing extensively to Astronomy and Astrophysics. Their work encompasses an array of topics including galaxies formation, evolution, and phenomena; astrophysical phenomena and observations; astrophysics and star formation studies; and gamma-ray bursts and supernovae.

Mainieri has published scholarly articles primarily in several venues known for astrophysical research. These include:

arXiv (Cornell University)
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
Astronomy and Astrophysics
The Astrophysical Journal
The Astrophysical Journal Letters

Their research interests branch into subfields such as instrumentation, nuclear and high energy physics, and atomic and molecular physics alongside the dominant focus in astronomy and astrophysics.

Among recent papers associated with Mainieri's research are:

COSMOS-Web: An Overview of the JWST Cosmic Origins Survey (2023, The Astrophysical Journal)
Quasar feedback survey: multiphase outflows, turbulence, and evidence for feedback caused by low power radio jets inclined into the galaxy disc (2022, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society)
High molecular gas content and star formation rates in local galaxies that host quasars, outflows, and jets (2020, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society)
First Results from the JWST Early Release Science Program Q3D: Turbulent Times in the Life of a z ∼ 3 Extremely Red Quasar Revealed by NIRSpec IFU (2022, The Astrophysical Journal Letters)
KASHz: No evidence for ionised outflows instantaneously suppressing star formation in moderate luminosity AGN at z ∼ 1.4-2.6 (2020, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society)

Their collaborative network features frequent co-authors such as C. M. Harrison, Darshan Kakkad, Chiara Circosta, Nadia L. Zakamska, and A. Marconi, highlighting a pattern of sustained partnerships in the field.

Mainieri's academic contributions are mainly concentrated in research on galaxies and cosmic phenomena, with publications examining the intricacies of AGN feedback, molecular gas content in galaxies, and quasar outflows. These topics reflect a broader engagement with astrophysical phenomena and cosmic star formation processes.
