A Jet from a Nearly Dormant Black Hole

Xiaopeng Cheng, Hai Yang, Jun Yang +11

Most galaxies host supermassive black holes (SMBHs) that remain weakly accreting or dormant for much of their lifetimes. At the lowest accretion rates, these systems may represent…

Modeling the inner part of the jet in M87: Confronting jet morphology with theory

Hai Yang, Feng Yuan, Hui Li +7

The formation of jets in black hole accretion systems is a long-standing problem. It has been proposed that a jet can be formed by extracting the rotation energy of the black hole…

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…

A ring-like accretion structure in M87 connecting its black hole and jet

Ru-Sen Lu, Keiichi Asada, Thomas P. Krichbaum +118

The nearby radio galaxy M87 is a prime target for studying black hole accretion and jet formation^{1,2}. Event Horizon Telescope observations of M87 in 2017, at a wavelength of 1.3…

Super-Resolved Image of M87 Observed with East Asian VLBI Network

Fumie Tazaki, Yuzhu Cui, Kazuhiro Hada +11

Obtaining high-resolution images at centimeter-or-longer wavelengths is vital for understanding the physics of jets. We reconstructed images from the M87 22 GHz data observed with…

Spectral analysis of a parsec-scale jet in M87: Observational constraint on the magnetic field strengths in the jet

Hyunwook Ro, Motoki Kino, Bong Won Sohn +49

Because of its proximity and the large size of its black hole, M87 is one of the best targets for studying the launching mechanism of active galactic nucleus jets. Currently, magne…
