Recent publications on the same topic in what appear to be good journals (latest in Astrophysical Journal Letters, which has an h of 129).

Her last paper on the same topic was in fact retracted a year ago (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32132618/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32132618/) but still appears on her 'key papers' list for some reason.
