A model for the image structure and spectral energy distribution of relativistic jets

Dominic W. Pesce, Ramesh Narayan, Yuh Tsunetoe

Upcoming advances in high-frequency VLBI promise to enable spatially resolved studies of astrophysical jets across an increasingly large source population. We present here a Python…

Spatially resolved spectral properties of M87* on event horizon scales

Shan-Shan Zhao, Ru-Sen Lu, Rocco Lico +2

The supermassive black hole at the center of the nearby radio galaxy M87 (M87*) is a prime target for studying black hole physics. Spatially resolved spectral measurements on event…

Multifrequency Synthesis via CHIBI: Colorful Hierarchical Interferometric Bayesian Imaging

Erandi Chavez, Paul Tiede, Sara Issaoun +4

From magnetized plasma of relativistic jets to dust grains within protoplanetary disks, we study the emission mechanisms of radio sources via their rich spectral structure. Multifr…

Slow-Light Effect in the Jet-Launching Region of M87

Yuh Tsunetoe, Dominic W. Pesce, Ramesh Narayan

We explore the impact of "slow-light" radiative transfer - i.e., general relativistic radiative transfer (GRRT) calculations in which the simulated fluid evolves while light rays a…

Limb-Brightened Jet in M87 from Anisotropic Nonthermal Electrons

Yuh Tsunetoe, Dominic W. Pesce, Ramesh Narayan +5

Very long baseline interferometry observations reveal that relativistic jets like the one in M87 have a limb-brightened, double-edged structure. Analytic and numerical models strug…

Jet Archaeology and Forecasting: Image Variability and Magnetic Field Configuration

Yuh Tsunetoe, Ramesh Narayan, Angelo Ricarte

We investigate how magnetic field variations around accreting black holes on event horizon scales affect the morphology of magnetically-driven jet on larger scales. By performing r…

Survey of Non-thermal Electron around Supermassive Black Holes through Polarization Flips

Yuh Tsunetoe, Tomohisa Kawashima, Ken Ohsuga +1

Optically thick non-thermal synchrotron sources notably produce linear polarization vectors being parallel to projected magnetic field lines on the observer's screen, although they…
