The Wetterstein Millimeter Telescope: A New German Facility for Astronomy and Geodesy
Alexander Neidhardt, Matthias Kadler, A. K. -Baczko +7
The Wetterstein Millimeter Telescope (WMT) is a planned broadband (1.2-120 GHz) radio telescope to be established near the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus (UFS) on…
Probing radiation micro-physics in M 87 I. Total intensity and broad-band spectra
Christian M. Fromm, Yosuke Mizuno, Ziri Younsi +6
The paper presents 3D general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of accretion onto a Kerr black hole in M87 and predicts how future high‑resolution VLBI observations can…
VLBI with SKAMPI, the SKA-Mid MPIfR dish demonstrator
Jompoj Wongphechauxsorn, Niclas Alexander Esser, Tobias Winchen +13
The SKA-MPIfR telescope (SKAMPI) is a prototype SKA-Mid antenna located at the SKA site in the Karoo Desert, South Africa. It is funded by the Max Planck Society, through the Max P…
SKA-VLBI Probes of High-energy Emission Processes in Relativistic Jets
M. Kadler, E. K. Bempong-Manful, P. G. Edwards +10
Relativistic jets in the nuclei of active galaxies are ubiquitous sources of high-energy emission. In particular, blazars represent the most luminous persistent X-ray and gamma-ray…
Exploring the physics behind the observed magnetic filaments in large scale radio galaxies
Christian M. Fromm, Matthias Kadler, Karl Mannheim
Recent low-frequency MeerKAT observations of radio galaxies have revealed an unexpected population of thin, highly collimated synchrotron threads, whose numbers continue to grow wi…
Parsec-scale polarimetry and kinematics of a spine-sheath jet in the neutrino-blazar TXS 0506+056
F. Eppel, P. Benke, C. Degli Agosti +10
In 2017, the blazar TXS 0506+056 showed a remarkable gamma-ray outburst simultaneously with a high-energy neutrino detection by IceCube from the same sky region. The significance o…
