Selective Dynamical Imaging of Interferometric Data

Joseph Farah, Peter Galison, Kazunori Akiyama +16

Recent developments in very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have made it possible for the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) to resolve the innermost accretion flows of the largest…

On the Origin and Evolution of Curvature of the Spectral Energy Distribution of Fermi Bright Blazars

Muhammad S. Anjum, Liang Chen, Minfeng Gu

The origin and evolution of spectral curvature in blazar spectral energy distribution (SED) is still unclear. Since the observed SED curvature is related to an intrinsic curvature…

First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole

The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration

When surrounded by a transparent emission region, black holes are expected to reveal a dark shadow caused by gravitational light bending and photon capture at the event horizon. To…

Estimating black hole masses in young radio sources using CFHT spectroscopy

Minfeng Gu, Soojong Pak, Luis C. Ho

The correlation between black hole masses and stellar velocity dispersions provides an efficient method to determine the masses of black holes in active galaxies. We obtained optic…

A test on external Compton models for -ray active galactic nuclei

Zhonghui Fan, Xinwu Cao, Minfeng Gu

There is clear evidence that the -ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is attributed to the inverse Compton scatterings in the relativistic blobs near the massive bla…
