Ring Asymmetry and Spin in M87*
Vadim Bernshteyn, Nicholas S. Conroy, Michi Bauböck +263
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) images of the supermassive black hole M87* depict an asymmetric ring of emission. General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) models of M87* and…
Locating the missing large-scale emission in the jet of M87* with short EHT baselines
Boris Georgiev, Paul Tiede, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +280
In Very-Long Baseline Interferometric arrays, nearly co-located stations probe the largest scales and typically cannot resolve the observed source. In the absence of large-scale st…
Probing jet base emission of M87* with the 2021 Event Horizon Telescope observations
Saurabh, Hendrik Müller, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +282
We investigate the presence and spatial characteristics of the jet base emission in M87* at 230 GHz, enabled by the enhanced uv coverage in the 2021 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) o…
Shared-optical-path VLBI frequency phase transfer from 86 to 258 GHz on an 8600 km baseline: Demonstrated with the APEX and IRAM 30 m telescopes
G. -Y. Zhao, A. L. Roy, J. F. Wagner +24
The receiver N3AR operating at a frequency range between 67 and 116 GHz has been commissioned at the APEX telescope in October 2024. This adds a new low-frequency band for APEX, wi…
Origin of the ring ellipticity in the black hole images of M87*
Rohan Dahale, Ilje Cho, Kotaro Moriyama +273
We investigate the origin of the elliptical ring structure observed in the images of the supermassive black hole M87*, aiming to disentangle contributions from gravitational, astro…
