High-Sensitivity 86GHz (3.5mm) VLBI Observations of M87: Deep Imaging of the Jet Base at a 10 Schwarzschild-Radius Resolution

Kazuhiro Hada, Motoki Kino, Akihiro Doi +9

We report on results from new high-sensitivity, high-resolution 86GHz (3.5 millimeter) observations of the jet base in the nearby radio galaxy M87, obtained by the Very Long Baseli…

Resolved Magnetic-Field Structure and Variability Near the Event Horizon of Sagittarius A*

Michael D. Johnson, Vincent L. Fish, Sheperd S. Doeleman +45

Near a black hole, differential rotation of a magnetized accretion disk is thought to produce an instability that amplifies weak magnetic fields, driving accretion and outflow. The…

Magnetization degree at the jet base of M87 derived from the event horizon telescope data: Testing magnetically driven jet paradigm

M. Kino, F. Takahara, K. Hada +3

We explore the degree of magnetization at the jet base of M87 by using the observational data of the event horizon telescope (EHT) at 230~GHz obtained by Doeleman et al. By utilizi…

Probing Precise Location of Radio Core in TeV Blazar Mrk 501 with VERA at 43 GHz

S. Koyama, M. Kino, A. Doi +13

We investigate the position of the radio core in a blazar by multi-epoch astrometric observations at 43 GHz. Using the VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA), we have conducte…
