First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. IX. Detection of Near-horizon Circular Polarization
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations have revealed a bright ring of emission around the supermassive black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy. EHT images in linear polariza…
Polarimetric Geometric Modeling for mm-VLBI Observations of Black Holes
Freek Roelofs, Michael D. Johnson, Andrew Chael +4
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a millimeter very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) array that has imaged the apparent shadows of the supermassive black holes M87* and Sagit…
First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI: Testing the Black Hole Metric
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
Astrophysical black holes are expected to be described by the Kerr metric. This is the only stationary, vacuum, axisymmetric metric, without electromagnetic charge, that satisfies…
First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. V. Testing Astrophysical Models of the Galactic Center Black Hole
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
In this paper, we provide a first physical interpretation for the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)'s 2017 observations of Sgr A*. Our main approach is to compare resolved EHT data at…
Precessing jet nozzle connecting to a spinning black hole in M87
Yuzhu Cui, Kazuhiro Hada, Tomohisa Kawashima +76
The nearby radio galaxy M87 offers a unique opportunity to explore the connections between the central supermassive black hole and relativistic jets. Previous studies of the inner…
A search for pulsars around Sgr A* in the first Event Horizon Telescope dataset
Pablo Torne, Kuo Liu, Ralph P. Eatough +282
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observed in 2017 the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), at a frequency of 228.1 GHz (=1.3 mm). Th…
The Past and Future of East Asia to Italy: Nearly Global VLBI
Gabriele Giovannini, Yuzhu Cui, Kazuhiro Hada +29
We present here the East Asia to Italy Nearly Global VLBI (EATING VLBI) project. How this project started and the evolution of the international collaboration between Korean, Japan…
Transverse Oscillations of the M87 Jet Revealed by KaVA Observations
Hyunwook Ro, Kunwoo Yi, Yuzhu Cui +6
Recent VLBI monitoring has found transverse motions of the M87 jet. However, due to the limited cadence of previous observations, details of the transverse motion have not been ful…
Super-Resolved Image of M87 Observed with East Asian VLBI Network
Fumie Tazaki, Yuzhu Cui, Kazuhiro Hada +11
Obtaining high-resolution images at centimeter-or-longer wavelengths is vital for understanding the physics of jets. We reconstructed images from the M87 22 GHz data observed with…
Spectral analysis of a parsec-scale jet in M87: Observational constraint on the magnetic field strengths in the jet
Hyunwook Ro, Motoki Kino, Bong Won Sohn +49
Because of its proximity and the large size of its black hole, M87 is one of the best targets for studying the launching mechanism of active galactic nucleus jets. Currently, magne…
Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration
Cora Prather, Jason Dexter, Monika Moscibrodzka +270
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…
