Extreme Plasma Processes Around Compact Objects

Explore extreme plasma processes occurring around compact objects in this 54-minute presentation by Jens Mahlmann from Dartmouth College. Delivered on March 24, 2025, as part of the CITA Presentations series, the lecture examines the complex physics of plasma behavior in the intense gravitational environments surrounding compact astronomical objects such as neutron stars and black holes. Gain insights into the fundamental mechanisms driving high-energy phenomena in these extreme astrophysical settings.
