The mass distribution in the Galactic Centre from interferometric astrometry of multiple stellar orbits
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +62
The stars orbiting the compact radio source Sgr A* in the Galactic Centre are precision probes of the gravitational field around the closest massive black hole. In addition to adap…
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…
The Variability of the Black-Hole Image in M87 at the Dynamical Time Scale
Kaushik Satapathy, Dimitrios Psaltis, Feryal Ozel +235
The black-hole images obtained with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) are expected to be variable at the dynamical timescale near their horizons. For the black hole at the center o…
Constraining particle acceleration in Sgr A* with simultaneous GRAVITY, Spitzer, NuSTAR and Chandra observations
R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +81
We report the time-resolved spectral analysis of a bright near-infrared and moderate X-ray flare of Sgr A*. We obtained light curves in the -, -, and -bands in the mid- an…
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…
An Event Horizon Imager (EHI) Mission Concept Utilizing Medium Earth Orbit Sub-mm Interferometry
V. Kudriashov, M. Martin-Neira, F. Roelofs +17
Submillimeter interferometry has the potential to image supermassive black holes on event horizon scales, providing tests of the theory of general relativity and increasing our und…
