Sparking Dynamic, Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection in a Twisted Flux Tube
Michael P. Grehan, Christopher Thompson, Bart Ripperda +1
Magnetic reconnection around neutron stars (NSs) forms small-scale currents while transferring energy to electron-positron pairs. These dissipating currents cover a wide range of s…
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…
Distortion of a relativistic jet echoing a magnetic flux eruption
Krzysztof Nalewajko, Mateusz Kapusta, Bart Ripperda +1
Magnetized accretion onto spinning black holes can accumulate a large magnetic flux across the event horizon and launch a pair of relativistic jets via the Blandford-Znajek mechani…
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…
Detection and Evolution of Linear Polarization of the Galactic Center Transient MAXI J1744-294
Joseph M. Michail, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Mayura Balakrishnan +14
MAXI J1744294, likely a low-mass X-ray binary system, is a Galactic-center transient source, detected at radio and X-ray wavelengths, located approximately southeast of S…
