Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Electron
  • Radar
  • Astronomy

His main research concerns Depth sounding, Mars Exploration Program, MARSIS, Remote sensing and Radar. His Depth sounding research spans across into areas like Comet nucleus, Comet and Mineralogy. His studies in Comet integrate themes in fields like Propagation time and Solar System.

His study in MARSIS is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Martian and Ionospheric sounding. His Remote sensing research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Reflection, Orbiter and Radar imaging. When carried out as part of a general Radar research project, his work on Radar astronomy is frequently linked to work in Circumstellar habitable zone, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Radar Soundings of the Subsurface of Mars (272 citations)
  • Subsurface radar sounding of the south polar layered deposits of Mars. (221 citations)
  • The landing(s) of Philae and inferences about comet surface mechanical properties (167 citations)

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

Wlodek Kofman mainly investigates Radar, Remote sensing, Comet, Mars Exploration Program and Depth sounding. His Radar research incorporates elements of Wavelength, Tomography and Icy moon, Jupiter. Wlodek Kofman studied Remote sensing and Bistatic radar that intersect with Surface roughness.

Wlodek Kofman has researched Comet in several fields, including Spacecraft and Permittivity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including MARSIS and Geophysics. His Depth sounding research covers fields of interest such as Comet nucleus and Orbiter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrobiology (19.89%)
  • Radar (40.06%)

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

His main research concerns Comet, Astrobiology, Radar, Remote sensing and Depth sounding. His Comet study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Spacecraft, Wavelength and Permittivity. His Permittivity study incorporates themes from Computational physics, Mineralogy, Astrophysics and Optics.

He interconnects Hard rime and Icy moon in the investigation of issues within Radar. His work investigates the relationship between Remote sensing and topics such as MARSIS that intersect with problems in Ionospheric sounding. His Depth sounding research includes elements of Comet nucleus, Geophysics and Orbiter.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The landing(s) of Philae and inferences about comet surface mechanical properties (167 citations)
  • Properties of the 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko interior revealed by CONSERT radar (163 citations)
  • Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionospheric Sounding (MARSIS) after nine years of operation: A summary (44 citations)

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

  • Electron
  • Radar
  • Astronomy

His primary scientific interests are in Comet, Astrobiology, Radar, Permittivity and Solar System. His Comet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spacecraft and Orbiter. His Radar research incorporates themes from Remote sensing and Aliasing.

His research in Permittivity intersects with topics in Porosity and Astrophysics. His Mars Exploration Program research includes themes of MARSIS, Total electron content, Aeronautics and Ionosphere. In his study, he carries out multidisciplinary Depth sounding and Geophysics research.
