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…

Wide-field LOFAR imaging of the field around the double-double radio galaxy B1834+620: A fresh view on a restarted AGN and doubeltjes

E. Orrú, S. van Velzen, R. F. Pizzo +8

The existence of double-double radio galaxies (DDRGs) is evidence for recurrent jet activity in AGN, as expected from standard accretion models. A detailed study of these rare sour…

Pulsar polarisation below 200 MHz: Average profiles and propagation effects

A. Noutsos, C. Sobey, V. I. Kondratiev +52

We present the highest-quality polarisation profiles to date of 16 non-recycled pulsars and four millisecond pulsars, observed below 200 MHz with the LOFAR high-band antennas. Base…

A time-dependent jet model for the emission from Sagittarius A*

Dipankar Maitra, Sera Markoff, Heino Falcke

The source of emission from Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center, is still unknown. Flares and data from multiwavelength campaigns provide important clues abo…

Jet-lag in Sgr A*: What size and timing measurements tell us about the central black hole in the Milky Way

Heino Falcke, Sera Markoff, Geoffrey C. Bower

The black hole at the Galactic Center, Sgr A*, is the prototype of a galactic nucleus at a very low level of activity. Its radio through submm-wave emission is known to come from a…
