Dynamically important magnetic fields near the event horizon of Sgr A*
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Jiménez-Rosales, J. Dexter +53
We study the time-variable linear polarisation of Sgr A* during a bright NIR flare observed with the GRAVITY instrument on July 28, 2018. Motivated by the time evolution of both th…

Sgr A* near-infrared flares from reconnection events in a magnetically arrested disc
J. Dexter, A. Tchekhovskoy, A. Jiménez-Rosales +14
Large-amplitude Sgr A* near-infrared flares result from energy injection into electrons near the black hole event horizon. Astrometry data show continuous rotation of the emission…
