Black Hole Explorer Mission Development in Japan
Kazunori Akiyama, Mareki Honma, Akihiro Doi +21
The Black Hole Explorer (BHEX) is a next-generation space very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) mission concept that will extend existing ground-based millimeter/submillimeter V…
Measuring Photon Rings with the ngEHT
Paul Tiede, Michael D. Johnson, Dominic W. Pesce +3
General relativity predicts that images of optically thin accretion flows around black holes should generically have a ``photon ring,'' composed of a series of increasingly sharp s…
Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration
Ben S. Prather, Cora Prather, Jason Dexter +271
Interpretation of resolved polarized images of black holes by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) requires predictions of the polarized emission observable by an Earth-based instrume…
Dynamics and geometry of the inner sub-parsec-scale jet in 3C 279 observed with the Event Horizon Telescope
Hendrik Mueller, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Ai-Ling Zeng +275
The 2021 Event Horizon Telescope observations resolve the innermost jet region of the blazar 3C279 with unprecedented detail. The reconstructed images consistently reveal a compact…
The Variability of the Black-Hole Image in M87 at the Dynamical Time Scale
Kaushik Satapathy, Dimitrios Psaltis, Feryal Ozel +235
The black-hole images obtained with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) are expected to be variable at the dynamical timescale near their horizons. For the black hole at the center o…
Key Science Goals for the Next-Generation Event Horizon Telescope
Michael D. Johnson, Kazunori Akiyama, Lindy Blackburn +42
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has led to the first images of a supermassive black hole, revealing the central compact objects in the elliptical galaxy M87 and the Milky Way. Pr…
