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…
VLBI with SKAMPI, the SKA-Mid MPIfR dish demonstrator
Jompoj Wongphechauxsorn, Niclas Alexander Esser, Tobias Winchen +13
The SKA-MPIfR telescope (SKAMPI) is a prototype SKA-Mid antenna located at the SKA site in the Karoo Desert, South Africa. It is funded by the Max Planck Society, through the Max P…
Frequency Phase Transfer for Future Millimetre Arrays with Arbitrary Frequency Ratios
Senkhosi Simelane, Athol Kemball, Roger Deane
Non-dispersive tropospheric turbulence-induced phase delays enforce significant, often dominant, limitations to the imaging fidelity and dynamic range in (sub-)millimetre astronomy…
Extending the SKA Across Africa: The Case for a Continental African VLBI Network
Emmanuel K. Bempong-Manful, Jompoj Wongphechauxsorn, Jack Radcliffe +31
The African continent holds the key to unlocking the full potential of global Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). Strategic placement of radio telescopes across Africa provid…
Broadband multiwavelength properties of the archetypal blazar 3C 279 during the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope campaign
G. Principe, J. C. Algaba, E. Aviano +529
The archetypal blazar 3C 279 hosts a prominent relativistic jet and exhibits strong broadband variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. In April 2017, the Event Horizon Tele…
An extreme ram-pressure stripping event in a protocluster at redshift 4.3
Dazhi Zhou, Scott C. Chapman, Manuel Aravena +16
In the nearby Universe, the environment plays a crucial role in suppressing star formation in dense regions. In particular, ram-pressure stripping (RPS) is a major mechanism for re…
