Radiative Transfer Modeling of Radio-Band Linear Polarization Observations as a Probe of the Physical Conditions in the Jets of γ-Ray Flaring Blazars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
Since the mid-1980s, the shock-in-jet model has been the preferred paradigm to explain radio-band flaring in blazar jets. We describe our radiative transfer model incorporating relativistically-propagating shocks, and illustrate how the 4.8, 8, and 14.5 ...

Collagen organisation in the fibrous joint capsules in the digits of the human hand

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 612-623, April 2026.
The function of the finger joints is important for daily life. In this review of the literature, we consider the role of collagen and its organization within the fibrous finger joint capsules of the interphalangeal (IP) joints and investigate the relationships between collagen orientation and joint function. Abstract Normal function of the hand and, in

CURVATURE OF THE SPECTRAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF BLAZARS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, spectral energy distributions (SED) of both synchrotron and inverse Compton (IC) components of a sample of Fermi bright blazars are fitted by a log-parabolic law.

RoboPol: do optical polarization rotations occur in all blazars? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a new set of optical polarization plane rotations in blazars, observed during the third year of operation of RoboPol. The entire set of rotation events discovered during three years of observations is analysed with the aim of determining ...

The Blazar Sequence 2.0 [PDF]

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
This paper discusses the spectral energy distribution (SED) of all blazars with redshift detected by the Fermi satellite and listed in the 3LAC catalog. The so called “blazar sequence” from the phenomenological point of view will be updated, with no theory or modelling. It will be shown that: (i) pure data show that jet and accretion power are related;

On the origin of gamma-rays in Fermi blazars: beyondthe broad-line region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The gamma-ray emission in broad-line blazars is generally explained as inverse Compton (IC) radiation of relativistic electrons in the jet scattering optical-UV photons from the Broad Line Region (BLR), the so-called BLR External Compton scenario.

Localized Teacher Recruitment Through “Grow‐Your‐Own”: Impacts of the High School Teacher Academy of Maryland Program

open access: yesJournal of Policy Analysis and Management, Volume 45, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Recruiting teachers via “grow‐your‐own” (GYO) programs is a popular, yet rarely evaluated, strategy for addressing local workforce shortages and ensuring that incoming teachers resemble, understand, and have strong connections to their communities.

Selecting a complete sample of blazars in sub-millimetre catalogues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS), which has covered about 642 sq. deg. in five bands from 100 to 500 mu m, allows a blind flux-limited selection of blazars at sub-mm wavelengths. However, blazars constitute a tiny fraction

Long-term optical monitoring of TeV emitting blazars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
We present ten years of R-band monitoring data of 31 northern blazars which were either detected at very high-energy (VHE) gamma rays or listed as potential VHE gamma-ray emitters.

Increasing Latinx migratory high school students' engineering interest and self‐efficacy beliefs: A culturally responsive gamified engineering design activity

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 115, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background The ongoing underrepresentation of Latinx students, particularly girls, in engineering calls for new approaches to broaden participation. The present study aims to address this disparity by implementing a culturally responsive gamified engineering activity for migratory high school students, an often‐overlooked subset of Latinx ...
