The Effect of Nonlinear Landau Damping on Ultrarelativistic Beam Plasma Instabilities

Philip Chang, Avery E. Broderick, Christoph Pfrommer +3

Very-high energy gamma-rays from extragalactic sources pair-produce off of the extragalactic background light, yielding an electron-positron pair beam. This pair beam is unstable t…

Event-Horizon-Telescope Evidence for Alignment of the Black Hole in the Center of the Milky Way with the Inner Stellar Disk

Dimitrios Psaltis, Ramesh Narayan, Vincent L. Fish +3

Observations of the black hole in the center of the Milky Way with the Event Horizon Telescope at 1.3 mm have revealed a size of the emitting region that is smaller than the size o…

Imaging an Event Horizon: Mitigation of Scattering Toward Sagittarius A*

Vincent L. Fish, Michael D. Johnson, Ru-Sen Lu +10

The image of the emission surrounding the black hole in the center of the Milky Way is predicted to exhibit the imprint of general relativistic (GR) effects, including the existenc…

Relative Astrometry of Compact Flaring Structures in Sgr A* with Polarimetric VLBI

Michael D. Johnson, Vincent L. Fish, Sheperd S. Doeleman +3

We demonstrate that polarimetric interferometry can be used to extract precise spatial information about compact polarized flares of Sgr A*. We show that, for a faint dynamical com…

Imaging the Supermassive Black Hole Shadow and Jet Base of M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope

Ru-Sen Lu, Avery E. Broderick, Fabien Baron +4

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a project to assemble a Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) network of mm wavelength dishes that can resolve strong field General Relativi…

Possible Astrophysical Observables of Quantum Gravity Effects near Black Holes

Ue-Li Pen

Recent implications of results from quantum information theory applied to black holes has led to the confusing conclusions that requires either abandoning the equivalence principle…
