Collimation of the relativistic jet in the quasar 3C 273
Hiroki Okino, Kazunori Akiyama, Keiichi Asada +32
The collimation of relativistic jets launched from the vicinity of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is one of the key questions to un…
The Variability of the Black-Hole Image in M87 at the Dynamical Time Scale
Kaushik Satapathy, Dimitrios Psaltis, Feryal Ozel +235
The black-hole images obtained with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) are expected to be variable at the dynamical timescale near their horizons. For the black hole at the center o…
Toward determining the number of observable supermassive black hole shadows
Dominic W. Pesce, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Ramesh Narayan +7
We present estimates for the number of shadow-resolved supermassive black hole (SMBH) systems that can be detected using radio interferometers, as a function of angular resolution,…
The Polarized Image of a Synchrotron Emitting Ring of Gas Orbiting a Black Hole
Ramesh Narayan, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Michael D. Johnson +237
Synchrotron radiation from hot gas near a black hole results in a polarized image. The image polarization is determined by effects including the orientation of the magnetic field i…
First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. VIII. Magnetic Field Structure near The Event Horizon
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations at 230 GHz have now imaged polarized emission around the supermassive black hole in M87 on event-horizon scales. This polarized synchrotr…
First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. VII. Polarization of the Ring
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
In 2017 April, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observed the near-horizon region around the supermassive black hole at the core of the M87 galaxy. These 1.3 mm wavelength observat…
Broadband Multi-wavelength Properties of M87 during the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope Campaign
J. C. Algaba, J. Anczarski, K. Asada +36
In 2017, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration succeeded in capturing the first direct image of the center of the M87 galaxy. The asymmetric ring morphology and size are…
