About Philip Hopkins

Philip Hopkins, With an exceptional h-index of 118 and a recent h-index of 84 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at California Institute of Technology, specializes in the field of Theoretical Astrophysics, Astronomy, and Cosmology (Galaxy, Star, and Planet Formation).

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Disc settling and dynamical heating: histories of Milky Way-mass stellar discs across cosmic time in the FIRE simulations

[C ii] 158 μm emission as an indicator of galaxy star formation rate

Connection between galaxy morphology and dark-matter halo structure I: a running threshold for thin discs and size predictors from the dark sector

FORGE'd in FIRE III: The IMF in Quasar Accretion Disks from STARFORGE

Hooks & Bends in the radial acceleration relation: discriminatory tests for dark matter and MOND

Constraining the H2 column densities in the diffuse interstellar medium using dust extinction and H I data

Galactic cosmic-ray scattering due to intermittent structures
