Modeling Reconstructed Images of Jets Launched by SANE Super-Eddington Accretion Flows Around SMBHs with the ngEHT

Brandon Curd, Razieh Emami, Freek Roelofs +1

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) around super massive black holes (SMBHs) are a potential laboratory to study super-Eddington accretion disks and sometimes result in powerful jets or…

Probing plasma composition with the next generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT)

Razieh Emami, Richard Anantua, Angelo Ricarte +15

We explore the plasma matter content in the innermost accretion disk/jet in M87* as relevant for an enthusiastic search for the signatures of anti-matter in the next generation of…

Emission Modeling in the EHT-ngEHT Age

Richard Anantua, Joaquín Dúran, Nathan Ngata +9

This work proposes a methodology to test phenomenologically-motivated emission processes that account for the flux and polarization distribution and global structure of the 230 GHz…

GRRMHD Simulations of MAD Accretion Disks Declining from Super-Eddington to Sub-Eddington Accretion Rates

Brandon Curd, Ramesh Narayan

We present two general relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamics (GRRMHD) simulations of magnetically arrested disks (MADs) around non-spinning () and spinning ()…

GRRMHD Simulations of Tidal Disruption Event Accretion Disks around Supermassive Black Holes: Jet Formation, Spectra, and Detectability

Brandon Curd, Ramesh Narayan

We report results from general relativistic radiation MHD (GRRMHD) simulations of a super-Eddington black hole (BH) accretion disk formed as a result of a tidal disruption event (T…
