Event Horizon Telescope observations of the jet launching and collimation in Centaurus A

Michael Janssen, Heino Falcke, Matthias Kadler +236

Very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of active galactic nuclei at millimeter wavelengths have the power to reveal the launching and initial collimation region of e…

Multi-epoch searches for relativistic binary pulsars and fast transients in the Galactic Centre

R. P. Eatough, P. Torne, G. Desvignes +10

The high stellar density in the central parsecs around the Galactic Centre makes it a seemingly favourable environment for finding relativistic binary pulsars. These include pulsar…

Constraints on black-hole charges with the 2017 EHT observations of M87*

Prashant Kocherlakota, Luciano Rezzolla, Heino Falcke +234

Our understanding of strong gravity near supermassive compact objects has recently improved thanks to the measurements made by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). We use here the M8…

The Polarized Image of a Synchrotron Emitting Ring of Gas Orbiting a Black Hole

Ramesh Narayan, Daniel C. M. Palumbo, Michael D. Johnson +237

Synchrotron radiation from hot gas near a black hole results in a polarized image. The image polarization is determined by effects including the orientation of the magnetic field i…

Polarimetric properties of Event Horizon Telescope targets from ALMA

Ciriaco Goddi, Ivan Marti-Vidal, Hugo Messias +31

We present the results from a full polarization study carried out with ALMA during the first VLBI campaign, which was conducted in Apr 2017 in the 3mm and 1.3mm bands, in con…
