Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Galaxy

William P. Blair spends much of his time researching Astrophysics, Astronomy, Supernova, Supernova remnant and Spectral line. His research brings together the fields of Shock wave and Astrophysics. His study in Supernova is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both H II region, Stellar evolution, Infrared and Spitzer Space Telescope.

His research in Supernova remnant intersects with topics in Doubly ionized oxygen, Spectroscopy, Radiative transfer and H-alpha. William P. Blair combines subjects such as Deuterium and Continuum with his study of Spectral line. William P. Blair interconnects Local Group, Sculptor Group and Hubble sequence in the investigation of issues within Emission spectrum.

His most cited work include:

  • Overview of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Mission (636 citations)
  • On-Orbit Performance of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) Satellite (444 citations)
  • A Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Survey of Interstellar Molecular Hydrogen in Translucent Clouds (321 citations)

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

His main research concerns Astrophysics, Astronomy, Supernova remnant, Supernova and Spectral line. His Astrophysics study incorporates themes from Shock wave and Emission spectrum. His Emission spectrum research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Line and ROSAT.

In his work, Infrared is strongly intertwined with Spitzer Space Telescope, which is a subfield of Supernova remnant. His work carried out in the field of Supernova brings together such families of science as Extinction, Wide Field Camera 3, Emission nebula and Spiral galaxy. The Spectral line study combines topics in areas such as Ionization, Ultraviolet and White dwarf.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (85.98%)
  • Astronomy (50.72%)
  • Supernova remnant (37.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (85.98%)
  • Supernova remnant (37.73%)
  • Supernova (33.20%)

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

William P. Blair mainly focuses on Astrophysics, Supernova remnant, Supernova, Galaxy and Astronomy. His research on Astrophysics frequently links to adjacent areas such as Spectral line. His Spectral line research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Radius and White dwarf.

His Supernova remnant research includes themes of Doubly ionized oxygen, Shock wave, Telescope and Large Magellanic Cloud. His research integrates issues of Compact star, Line, Spectroscopy, Emission nebula and Interstellar medium in his study of Supernova. Galaxy is closely attributed to Emission spectrum in his research.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A deep Chandra ACIS survey of M83 (52 citations)
  • An expanded HST/WFC3 survey of M83: Project overview and targeted supernova remnant search (42 citations)
  • SPITZER OBSERVATIONS OF THE TYPE IA SUPERNOVA REMNANT N103B: KEPLER'S OLDER COUSIN? (30 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Galaxy
  • Milky Way

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Supernova remnant, Supernova, Galaxy and Stars. The various areas that he examines in his Astrophysics study include Spectral line, Astronomy and Emission spectrum. His Spectral line study combines topics in areas such as Radius and Parallax.

His Supernova remnant study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Doubly ionized oxygen, Shock wave, Telescope and Large Magellanic Cloud. His work deals with themes such as Interstellar medium and Emission nebula, which intersect with Supernova. His work in Stars addresses subjects such as Point source, which are connected to disciplines such as Hubble space telescope and Photometry.
