Kilogauss magnetic field and jet dynamics in the quasar NRAO 530
Mikhail Lisakov, Svetlana Jorstad, Maciek Wielgus +12
The advancement of the Event Horizon Telescope has enabled the study of relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei down to sub-parsec linear scales even at high redshift. Quasi-si…
First Very Long Baseline Interferometry Detections at 870μm
Alexander W. Raymond, Sheperd S. Doeleman, Keiichi Asada +276
The first very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) detections at 870m wavelength (345GHz frequency) are reported, achieving the highest diffraction-limited angular resolutio…
The Black Hole Explorer: Motivation and Vision
Michael D. Johnson, Kazunori Akiyama, Rebecca Baturin +65
We present the Black Hole Explorer (BHEX), a mission that will produce the sharpest images in the history of astronomy by extending submillimeter Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry…
The Black Hole Explorer: Operating a Hybrid Observatory
Sara Issaoun, Kim Alonso, Kazunori Akiyama +16
We present a baseline science operations plan for the Black Hole Explorer (BHEX), a space mission concept aiming to confirm the existence of the predicted sharp ``photon ring" resu…
High Data Rate Laser Communications for the Black Hole Explorer
Jade Wang, Bryan Bilyeu, Don Boroson +14
The Black Hole Explorer (BHEX) is a mission concept that can dramatically improve state-of-the-art astronomical very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) imaging resolution by exten…
Prospects of Detecting a Jet in Sagittarius A* with VLBI
Erandi Chavez, Sara Issaoun, Michael D. Johnson +3
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) images of the horizon-scale emission around the Galactic Center supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) favor accretion flow models with a jet…
Broadband Multi-wavelength Properties of M87 during the 2018 EHT Campaign including a Very High Energy Flaring Episode
J. C. Algaba, M. Balokovic, S. Chandra +738
The nearby elliptical galaxy M87 contains one of the only two supermassive black holes whose emission surrounding the event horizon has been imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope (…
Atmospheric limitations for high-frequency ground-based VLBI
Dominic W. Pesce, Lindy Blackburn, Ryan Chaves +10
Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) provides the highest-resolution images in astronomy. The sharpest resolution is nominally achieved at the highest frequencies, but as the o…
Ordered magnetic fields around the 3C 84 central black hole
G. F. Paraschos, J. -Y. Kim, M. Wielgus +279
3C84 is a nearby radio source with a complex total intensity structure, showing linear polarisation and spectral patterns. A detailed investigation of the central engine region nec…
