Catherine is never ever going to graduate.
Catherine is the one who writes these webpages. She's hasty and a crybaby, working on a PhD when she's not being overworked by other people making unreasonable demands of her, and is prone to falling asleep during movies regardless of how emotionally invested she may be.
Catherine received her BSc (Hons) (Astronomy and Astrophysics) from Macquarie University in 2004. Her thesis was entitled "Hydroxyl Emission from Shock Waves in Interstellar Clouds", and one of these days she's going to get around to actually finishing that research and publishing a paper on the results.
Her PhD research is in the field of star formation, and she's currently working out whether or not the Hall effect has any ability to mess with gravitational collapse, or if it's just messing with her head. One of these days she's going to figure it all out, write a thesis, and then blow this popsicle stand. Or take long service leave.
She codes in Fortran 77 and vim is her text editor of choice.
Duplicating the results of Kraasnopolsky and Königl (2002) for self-similar gravitational collapse with ambipolar diffusion. The greyscale lines are K&K, the red the results of my model and the purple the asymptotic solutions used to calculate the boundary conditions.
