VLBI with SKAMPI, the SKA-Mid MPIfR dish demonstrator

Jompoj Wongphechauxsorn, Niclas Alexander Esser, Tobias Winchen +13

The SKA-MPIfR telescope (SKAMPI) is a prototype SKA-Mid antenna located at the SKA site in the Karoo Desert, South Africa. It is funded by the Max Planck Society, through the Max P…

Spectral index evolution of the limb-brightened jet in 3C 84

L. C. Debbrecht, G. F. Paraschos, E. Ros +11

Relativistic jets launched by active galactic nuclei are fundamental for understanding the physics of accreting supermassive black holes and their immediate environment, yet the me…

Full-polarization millimeter wavelength variability of Sagittarius A* during the 2018 EHT campaign

Ezequiel Albentosa-Ruiz, Jasmin E. Washington, Nicola Marchili +272

Sagittarius A* (Srg A*), the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, provides a unique laboratory to study accretion dynamics and plasma processes near the event ho…

Locating the missing large-scale emission in the jet of M87* with short EHT baselines

Boris Georgiev, Paul Tiede, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +280

In Very-Long Baseline Interferometric arrays, nearly co-located stations probe the largest scales and typically cannot resolve the observed source. In the absence of large-scale st…

A milliarcsecond localization associates FRB 20190417A with a compact persistent radio source and an extreme magneto-ionic environment

Alexandra M. Moroianu, Shivani Bhandari, Maria R. Drout +38

We report the milliarcsecond localization of a high (1379 pc/cc) dispersion measure (DM) repeating fast radio burst, FRB 20190417A. Combining European VLBI Network detections of fi…

Probing jet base emission of M87* with the 2021 Event Horizon Telescope observations

Saurabh, Hendrik Müller, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +282

We investigate the presence and spatial characteristics of the jet base emission in M87* at 230 GHz, enabled by the enhanced uv coverage in the 2021 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) o…
