First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. IV. Variability, Morphology, and Black Hole Mass
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
In this paper we quantify the temporal variability and image morphology of the horizon-scale emission from Sgr A*, as observed by the EHT in 2017 April at a wavelength of 1.3 mm. W…
First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. II. EHT and Multi-wavelength Observations, Data Processing, and Calibration
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
We present Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) 1.3 mm measurements of the radio source located at the position of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), collected during th…
Filamentary structures as the origin of blazar jet radio variability
Antonio Fuentes, José L. Gómez, José M. Martí +22
Supermassive black holes at the centre of active galactic nuclei power some of the most luminous objects in the Universe. Typically, very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) obser…
The expansion of the GRB 221009A afterglow

We present the first X-ray observation at sub-arcsecond resolution of the high-redshift () radio-loud quasar CFHQS J142952+544717 (J1429). The ~100 net-count 0.3-7 keV spec…
A search for inter-cluster filaments with LOFAR and eROSITA
D. N. Hoang, M. Brüggen, T. W. Shimwell +13
Cosmological simulations predict the presence of warm hot thermal gas in the cosmic filaments that connect galaxy clusters. This gas is thought to constitute an important part of t…
