First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results and the Role of ALMA
Ciriaco Goddi, Geoff Crew, Violette Impellizzeri +41
In April 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration revealed the first image of the candidate super-massive black hole (SMBH) at the centre of the giant elliptical galax…
The Growing Importance of a Tech Savvy Astronomy and Astrophysics Workforce
Dara Norman, Kelle Cruz, Vandana Desai +26
Fundamental coding and software development skills are increasingly necessary for success in nearly every aspect of astronomical and astrophysical research as large surveys and hig…
Prospects for Wideband VLBI Correlation in the Cloud
Ajay Gill, Lindy Blackburn, Arash Roshanineshat +5
This paper proposes a cloud architecture for the correlation of wide bandwidth VLBI data. Cloud correlation facilitates processing of entire experiments in parallel using flexibly…
Astro2020 APC White Paper: Elevating the Role of Software as a Product of the Research Enterprise
Arfon M. Smith, Dara Norman, Kelle Cruz +42
Software is a critical part of modern research, and yet there are insufficient mechanisms in the scholarly ecosystem to acknowledge, cite, and measure the impact of research softwa…
First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI. The Shadow and Mass of the Central Black Hole
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
We present measurements of the properties of the central radio source in M87 using Event Horizon Telescope data obtained during the 2017 campaign. We develop and fit geometric cres…
First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. V. Physical Origin of the Asymmetric Ring
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has mapped the central compact radio source of the elliptical galaxy M87 at 1.3 mm with unprecedented angular resolution. Here we consider the phy…
