Notice
A theoretical scientist is someone who practice science on a pure theoretical level. Applying a theory into practice is left to others.
Fields of research of a theoretical scientist can be in one off the already known fields such as, physics, biology, mathematics, or archaeology.

Theories
- The Daystrom Institute developed the theory behind a tomographic imaging scanner capable of multiphasic resolution. (TNG: "All Good Things...")
- In the 24th century breaking the warp ten barrier was considered a theoretical impossibility. In 2372 warp ten was reached by Tom Paris and Kathryn Janeway of the Federation starship USS Voyager in a modified shuttlecraft. (VOY: "Threshold")
- Starfleet's most experienced theoretical scientists were consulted on how to make James Moriarty exist outside the holodeck. They did not find a solution. (TNG: "Ship in a Bottle")
Persons in relation to...
- Nilani Kahn wanted to study theoretical quantum physics. Her husband Torias Dax eyes always glazed over the moment she brought up this discussion. (DS9: "Rejoined")
- Although not a scientist, Q provided theoretical guidance for Geordi La Forge's analysis of the Bre'el satellite. (TNG: "Deja Q")
- Sek, Tuvok's son, found exo-linguistics too theoretical and chose to study musical composition instead. (VOY: "Repression")
Background
The fields of research of Stephen Hawking are not mentioned in the episode 'Descent, Part I' . Because he plays himself in this episode, it is save to assume he also had the same fields as the 'real' Hawking.
