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…
Variability of Sagittarius A* at 3 GHz on minute-scale with MeerKAT
K. Kaur, I. Rammala-Zitha, A. Basu +21
The supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) exhibits temporal and spectral variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. However, variability at radio frequencies below…
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…
First polarization study of the M87 jet and active galactic nuclei at submillimeter wavelengths with ALMA
Ciriaco Goddi, Douglas F. Carlos
We present full-polarization observations at mm (345 GHz) conducted with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) toward Messier 87 (M87) and seven other r…
A helical magnetic field in quasar NRAO150 revealed by Faraday rotation
J. D. Livingston, A. S. Nikonov, S. A. Dzib +7
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are some of the most luminous and extreme environments in the Universe. The central engines of AGN, believed to be super-massive black-holes, are fed b…
Demographics of black holes at 100 R scales: accretion flows, jets, and shadows
Dhanya G. Nair, Neil M. Nagar, Venkatessh Ramakrishnan +87
Using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), the gravitationally lensed rings around the supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in Messier 87 (M87) and Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) have now been…
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 VLBI detection of Fornax A
G. F. Paraschos, M. Wielgus, P. Benke +10
Radio galaxies harbouring jetted active galactic nuclei are a frequent target of very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) because they play an essential role in exploring how jets…
Polarimetry and Astrometry of NIR Flares as Event Horizon Scale, Dynamical Probes for the Mass of Sgr A*
The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +66
We present new astrometric and polarimetric observations of flares from Sgr A* obtained with GRAVITY, the near-infrared interferometer at ESO's Very Large Telescope Interferometer…
The EB-correlation in Resolved Polarized Images: Connections to Astrophysics of Black Holes
Razieh Emami, Sheperd S. Doeleman, Maciek Wielgus +18
We present an in-depth analysis of a newly proposed correlation function in visibility space, between the E and B modes of the linear polarization, hereafter the EB-correlation, fo…
Tracing the hot spot motion using the next generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT)
Razieh Emami, Paul Tiede, Sheperd S. Doeleman +19
We propose to trace the dynamical motion of a shearing hot spot near the SgrA* source through a dynamical image reconstruction algorithm, StarWarps. Such a hot spot may form as the…
