Signatures of Black Hole Spin in Horizon-Scale Polarimetry
George N. Wong, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Zachary Gelles +1
The paper investigates how the spin of a black hole influences polarized emission observed at event‑horizon scales with VLBI, separating effects due to photon propagation in Kerr s…
Signatures of Black Hole Spin and Plasma Acceleration in Jet Polarimetry II: Off-Axis Jets
Zachary Gelles, Andrew Chael, Eliot Quataert
We analyze the polarization of optically thin, stationary, axisymmetric black hole jets at scales of order the light cylinder radius. Our work generalizes the face-on results of Ge…
Black Hole Polarimetry II: The Connection Between Spin and Polarization
George N. Wong, Andrew Chael, Alexandru Lupsasca +1
We study synchrotron polarization in spatially resolved horizon-scale images, such as those produced by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). In both general relativistic magnetohydro…
Origin of the ring ellipticity in the black hole images of M87*
Rohan Dahale, Ilje Cho, Kotaro Moriyama +273
We investigate the origin of the elliptical ring structure observed in the images of the supermassive black hole M87*, aiming to disentangle contributions from gravitational, astro…
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…
