First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI: Testing the Black Hole Metric

The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration

Astrophysical black holes are expected to be described by the Kerr metric. This is the only stationary, vacuum, axisymmetric metric, without electromagnetic charge, that satisfies…

A search for pulsars around Sgr A* in the first Event Horizon Telescope dataset

Pablo Torne, Kuo Liu, Ralph P. Eatough +282

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observed in 2017 the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), at a frequency of 228.1 GHz (=1.3 mm). Th…

Jitter Mechanism as a Kind of Coherent Radiation: Constrained by the GRB 221009A Emission at 18 TeV

Jirong Mao, Jiancheng Wang

The emission of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 221009A at 18 TeV has been detected by the large high-altitude air shower observatory (LHAASO). We suggest jitter radiation as a possible expl…

Temporal Analysis of GRB Precursors in the Third Swift-BAT Catalog

Liande Li, Jirong Mao

We select 52 long gamma-ray bursts(GRBs) having the precursor activity in the third Swift-BAT catalog. Each episode shown in both the precursors and the main bursts is fitted by th…
