The Polarized Image of a Synchrotron Emitting Ring of Gas Orbiting a Black Hole

Ramesh Narayan, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Michael D. Johnson +237

Synchrotron radiation from hot gas near a black hole results in a polarized image. The image polarization is determined by effects including the orientation of the magnetic field i…
