  • Christopher Fulton McKee (* 6. September 1942 in Washington, D.C.) ist ein US-amerikanischer Astrophysiker. McKee studierte an der Phillips Academy und der Harvard University (Bachelor-Abschluss) und wurde 1970 bei George B. Field an der University of California, Berkeley, promoviert. 1969/70 war er am Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Als Post-Doktorand war er am Caltech und 1971 bis 1974 Assistant Professor in Harvard. 1974 wurde er Assistant Professor für Physik und Astronomie in Berkeley und 1978 Professor. Dort stand er zeitweise der Physikfakultät vor und war Direktor des Spaces Sciences Laboratory (SSL) und Gründungsdirektor des Theoretical Astrophysics Center. 2015 wurde er Interim-Vizekanzler für Forschung. McKee war Sackler Lecturer in Harvard, in Toronto und Tel Aviv und Bahcall Lecturer in Tel Aviv. Er erhielt die Antoinette de Vaucouleurs Medal und hielt die zugehörige Vorlesung an der University of Texas. Er war mit Joseph Taylor Vorsitzender (2000) des zehnjährigen Astronomy and Astrophysics Survey Committee des National Research Council. Er befasste sich besonders mit astrophysikalischer Hydrodynamik, interstellaren Medien (Stoßwellen im interstellaren Medium, zum Beispiel aus Supernovae, Dreiphasenmodell des interstellaren Mediums mit Jeremiah Ostriker), Gaswolken, Quasaren und aktive galaktische Zentren, Winde von Akkretionsscheiben und Sternentstehung mit numerischen Simulationen. Mit Richard Klein gründete er die Berkeley Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics Group. 2016 hielt er die Henry Norris Russell Lectureship. Er ist Mitglied der National Academy of Sciences, der American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Fellow der American Association for the Advancement of Science und der American Physical Society. 1998/99 war er Guggenheim Fellow und 1981 Fairchild Scholar.

He is a former member (1990) and chairman (2000) of the NASA Astronomy and Astrophysics Survey Committee (the "decadal review") and former Director of the Space Sciences Laboratory (SSL) at UCB. McKee performed the first simulations of relativistic counter-streaming plasmas as part of his Ph.D. thesis at Berkeley (1970). He began his study of the interstellar medium by pointing out the existence of reverse shocks in young supernova remnants, and he then analyzed the interaction of a supernova blast wave with interstellar clouds. Since joining the Physics and Astronomy Departments in Berkeley in 1974, he has devoted much of his research to studying processes in the interstellar medium, including evaporation of clouds, the structure of shock waves in atomic and molecular gas, and the dynamics of blast waves in both homogeneous and inhomogeous media. In collaboration with Jeremiah Ostriker (Columbia University), he developed the three-phase model of the interstellar medium, which has been widely used to organize and interpret observational data. His research on quasars has included development of the relativistic blast wave model for variability, introduction of reverberation mapping to analyze variable emission line profiles, the two-phase model for quasar emission line regions, and the development of the theory of coronae and winds from accretion disks. He has developed a self-regulated model for the structure and evolution of molecular clouds, and for the rate of star formation within these clouds. He established the Berkeley Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics Group with Richard Klein to develop the technique of adaptive mesh refinement for numerical simulations of astrophysical fluid dynamics. In his three decades as a professor at UCB, he has advised many graduate students and postdoctoral research fellows. He was elected a Legacy Fellow of the American Astronomical Society in 2020. (en)

Il a développé un modèle de structure et évolution des nuages moléculaires ainsi que pour le taux formation d'étoiles dans ces nuages. Ce modèle en trois phases a été développé par Chris McKee et Jerry Ostriker dans un article publié en 1977 et a servi de base aux études menées pendant les 25 années qui ont suivi. Il est aussi actif dans le développement des méthodes numériques, notamment le raffinement de maillage adaptatif. (fr)
