Demographics of black holes at 100 R scales: accretion flows, jets, and shadows
Dhanya G. Nair, Neil M. Nagar, Venkatessh Ramakrishnan +87
Using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), the gravitationally lensed rings around the supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in Messier 87 (M87) and Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) have now been…
Jet Archaeology and Forecasting: Image Variability and Magnetic Field Configuration
Yuh Tsunetoe, Ramesh Narayan, Angelo Ricarte
We investigate how magnetic field variations around accreting black holes on event horizon scales affect the morphology of magnetically-driven jet on larger scales. By performing r…
Multi-messenger Probes of Supermassive Black Hole Spin Evolution
Angelo Ricarte, Priyamvada Natarajan, Ramesh Narayan +1
Using the semi-analytic model Serotina, we investigate the cosmic spin evolution of supermassive black holes incorporating recent results from general relativistic magnetohydrodyna…
First Very Long Baseline Interferometry Detections at 870μm
Alexander W. Raymond, Sheperd S. Doeleman, Keiichi Asada +276
The first very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) detections at 870m wavelength (345GHz frequency) are reported, achieving the highest diffraction-limited angular resolutio…
The Black Hole Explorer: Motivation and Vision
Michael D. Johnson, Kazunori Akiyama, Rebecca Baturin +65
We present the Black Hole Explorer (BHEX), a mission that will produce the sharpest images in the history of astronomy by extending submillimeter Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry…
Accessing a New Population of Supermassive Black Holes with Extensions to the Event Horizon Telescope
Xinyue Alice Zhang, Angelo Ricarte, Dominic W. Pesce +6
The Event Horizon Telescope has produced resolved images of the supermassive black holes Sgr A* and M87*, which present the largest shadows on the sky. In the next decade, technolo…
X-Ray Bright Active Galactic Nuclei in Local Dwarf Galaxies: Insights from eROSITA
Andrea Sacchi, Akos Bogdan, Urmila Chadayammuri +1
Although supermassive black holes (SMBHs) reside in the heart of virtually every massive galaxy, it remains debated whether dwarf galaxies commonly host SMBHs. Because low-mass gal…
Broadband Multi-wavelength Properties of M87 during the 2018 EHT Campaign including a Very High Energy Flaring Episode
J. C. Algaba, M. Balokovic, S. Chandra +738
The nearby elliptical galaxy M87 contains one of the only two supermassive black holes whose emission surrounding the event horizon has been imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope (…
Ordered magnetic fields around the 3C 84 central black hole
G. F. Paraschos, J. -Y. Kim, M. Wielgus +279
3C84 is a nearby radio source with a complex total intensity structure, showing linear polarisation and spectral patterns. A detailed investigation of the central engine region nec…
