Astrobites as a Community-led Model for Education, Science Communication, and Accessibility in Astrophysics

Gourav Khullar, Susanna Kohler, Tarini Konchady +21

Support for early career astronomers who are just beginning to explore astronomy research is imperative to increase retention of diverse practitioners in the field. Since 2010, Ast…

Incorporating Current Research into Formal Higher Education Settings using Astrobites

Nathan Sanders, Susanna Kohler, Chris Faesi +3

A primary goal of many undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in the physical sciences is to prepare students to engage in scientific research, or to prepare students for career…

Turbulent spectra of the brightest gamma-ray flares of blazars

Susanna Kohler, Krzysztof Nalewajko

We investigate the spectral properties of the brightest gamma-ray flares of blazars detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope. We search for the presence of spectral breaks and me…

Entropy Production in Relativistic Jet Boundary Layers

Susanna Kohler, Mitchell C. Begelman

Hot relativistic jets, passing through a background medium with a pressure gradient p \propto r^{-η} where 2 < η<= 8/3, develop a shocked boundary layer containing a significant fr…

Magnetic Domination of Recollimation Boundary Layers in Relativistic Jets

Susanna Kohler, Mitchell C. Begelman

We study the collimation of relativistic magnetohydrodynamic jets by the pressure of an ambient medium, in the limit where the jet interior loses causal contact with its surroundin…
