Resolving Nearby Supermassive Black Holes with the Black Hole Explorer
Yuto Akiyama, Kazunori Akiyama, Dominic W. Pesce +12
Recent Event Horizon Telescope results have demonstrated unique and transformative science in gravitational physics and black hole astrophysics enabled by event-horizon-scale imagi…
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…
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…
Shaping the future of Global Interferometric Arrays: Imaging Strong Gravity and Magnetic Fields
Venkatessh Ramakrishnan, Violette Impellizzeri, Chi-Kwan Chan +7
The observational validation of General Relativity (GR) has been propelled in recent years by recent breakthroughs in Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) augmented by ALMA. We…
Full-polarization millimeter wavelength variability of Sagittarius A* during the 2018 EHT campaign
Ezequiel Albentosa-Ruiz, Jasmin E. Washington, Nicola Marchili +272
Sagittarius A* (Srg A*), the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, provides a unique laboratory to study accretion dynamics and plasma processes near the event ho…
Ring Asymmetry and Spin in M87*
Vadim Bernshteyn, Nicholas S. Conroy, Michi Bauböck +263
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) images of the supermassive black hole M87* depict an asymmetric ring of emission. General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) models of M87* and…
