Nicholas R. MacDonald

Extragalactic jet propagation and emission across kiloparsec to subparsec scales.

Research interests

  • Extragalactic jets
  • Jet propagation and emission
  • Kiloparsec to subparsec jet scales
  • Theoretical, observational, and numerical astrophysics

Nicholas studies the propagation and emission of extragalactic jets from kiloparsec down to subparsec scales. His research combines theoretical, observational, and numerical approaches to understand the physics of these relativistic outflows.
