First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. IX. Detection of Near-horizon Circular Polarization

The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration

Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations have revealed a bright ring of emission around the supermassive black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy. EHT images in linear polariza…

Polarimetric Geometric Modeling for mm-VLBI Observations of Black Holes

Freek Roelofs, Michael D. Johnson, Andrew Chael +4

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a millimeter very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) array that has imaged the apparent shadows of the supermassive black holes M87* and Sagit…

Characterization of black hole accretion through image moment invariants

A. Jiménez-Rosales, A. I. Yfantis, M. A. Mościbrodzka +1

We apply image moment invariant analysis to total intensity and polarimetric images calculated from general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of accreting black holes. W…

Fitting the light curves of Sagittarius A* with a hot-spot model

A. I. Yfantis, M. A. Mościbrodzka, M. Wielgus +2

Sagittarius A* exhibits frequent flaring activity across the electromagnetic spectrum. Signatures of an orbiting hot spot have been identified in the polarized millimeter wavelengt…

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…

Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration

Cora Prather, Jason Dexter, Monika Moscibrodzka +270

Interpretation of resolved polarized images of black holes by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) requires predictions of the polarized emission observable by an Earth-based instrume…

Prospects for ray-tracing light intensity and polarization in models of accreting compact objects using a GPU

Monika Moscibrodzka, Aristomenis Yfantis

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has recently released high-resolution images of accretion flows onto two supermassive black holes. Our physical understanding of these images depe…
