Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Electron

Yi-Zhong Fan mostly deals with Astrophysics, Gamma-ray burst, Astronomy, Afterglow and Light curve. His study in Astrophysics focuses on Neutron star, Kilonova, LIGO, Gravitational wave and Magnetar. His Gamma-ray burst research incorporates elements of Spectral line, GRB 080916C, Flare and Supernova.

His Astronomy study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Gamma ray. His Afterglow research integrates issues from Light emission, Synchrotron, GRB 050709 and Kinetic energy. As a part of the same scientific study, Yi-Zhong Fan usually deals with the Light curve, concentrating on Astrophysical jet and frequently concerns with X-ray telescope, Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission and Telescope.

His most cited work include:

  • Physical Processes Shaping Gamma-Ray Burst X-Ray Afterglow Light Curves: Theoretical Implications from the Swift X-Ray Telescope Observations (868 citations)
  • Physical Processes Shaping Gamma-Ray Burst X-Ray Afterglow Light Curves: Theoretical Implications from the Swift X-Ray Telescope Observations (868 citations)
  • Predictions for the Rates of Compact Binary Coalescences Observable by Ground-based Gravitational-wave Detectors (863 citations)

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

Yi-Zhong Fan mainly investigates Astrophysics, Gamma-ray burst, Astronomy, Afterglow and Neutron star. His study in Gamma ray, Light curve, Gravitational wave, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Galaxy is carried out as part of his studies in Astrophysics. The various areas that Yi-Zhong Fan examines in his Gamma-ray burst study include Redshift, Telescope, Radius, Photon and Kilonova.

His work carried out in the field of Photon brings together such families of science as GRB 080916C, Synchrotron and Synchrotron radiation. His work in Afterglow covers topics such as Lorentz factor which are related to areas like Outflow. His work focuses on many connections between Neutron star and other disciplines, such as Equation of state, that overlap with his field of interest in Lambda.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrophysics (123.00%)
  • Gamma-ray burst (71.25%)
  • Astronomy (42.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrophysics (123.00%)
  • Neutron star (31.01%)
  • Dark matter (22.79%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Astrophysics, Neutron star, Dark matter, Gamma ray and Gravitational wave. In his study, Photon is strongly linked to Spectral line, which falls under the umbrella field of Astrophysics. Yi-Zhong Fan interconnects LIGO, Radius, Equation of state, Gravitation and Black hole in the investigation of issues within Neutron star.

His Dark matter research includes themes of Milky Way, Electron, Cosmic ray and Annihilation. His Gamma ray research includes elements of Scintillator, Detector, Supernova, Flare and Light curve. His research in Gamma-ray burst is mostly concerned with Afterglow.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Short GRBs: Opening Angles, Local Neutron Star Merger Rate, and Off-axis Events for GRB/GW Association (66 citations)
  • Short GRBs: Opening Angles, Local Neutron Star Merger Rate, and Off-axis Events for GRB/GW Association (66 citations)
  • The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) Science White Paper (47 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Astrophysics
  • Electron

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Astrophysics, Neutron star, Dark matter, Cosmic ray and Gamma ray. His studies in Gamma-ray burst, Supernova, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Galaxy and Blazar are all subfields of Astrophysics research. His study in Gamma-ray burst focuses on Afterglow in particular.

His study in Neutron star is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gravitational wave, LIGO, Radius and Equation of state. He combines subjects such as Physics beyond the Standard Model, Spectral line, Kinetic energy and Photon with his study of Dark matter. Cosmic ray is a primary field of his research addressed under Astronomy.
