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…
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…
Survey of Non-thermal Electron around Supermassive Black Holes through Polarization Flips
Yuh Tsunetoe, Tomohisa Kawashima, Ken Ohsuga +1
Optically thick non-thermal synchrotron sources notably produce linear polarization vectors being parallel to projected magnetic field lines on the observer's screen, although they…
Mapping the distribution of the magnetic field strength along the NGC 315 jet
Motoki Kino, Hyunwook Ro, Masaaki Takahashi +4
We study magnetic field strengths along the jet in NGC~315. First, we estimated the angular velocity of rotation in the jet magnetosphere by comparing the measured velocity profile…
Radiation and outflow properties of super-Eddington accretion flows around various mass classes of black holes: Dependence on the accretion rates
Shogo Yoshioka, Shin Mineshige, Ken Ohsuga +2
We perform axisymmetric two-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of super-Eddington accretion flow and outflow around black holes to examine the properties of radiation a…
Radiation MHD Simulations of Soft X-ray Emitting Regions in Changing Look AGN
Taichi Igarashi, Hiroyuki R. Takahashi, Tomohisa Kawashima +3
Strong soft X-ray emission called soft X-ray excess is often observed in luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN). It has been suggested that the soft X-rays are emitted from a warm (…
Black Hole Spacetime and Properties of Accretion Flows and Jets Probed by Black Hole Explorer: Science Cases Proposed by BHEX Japan Team
Tomohisa Kawashima, Yuh Tsunetoe, Ken Ohsuga +7
Black Hole Explorer (BHEX) is a space VLBI mission concept, which can probe the black hole spacetime and the plasma properties including the magnetic fields of the accretion flows…
The Japanese Vision for the Black Hole Explorer Mission
Kazunori Akiyama, Kotaro Niinuma, Kazuhiro Hada +43
The Black Hole Explorer (BHEX) is a next-generation space very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) mission concept that will extend the ground-based millimeter/submillimeter arrays…
Radio Images inside Highly Magnetized Jet Funnels Based on Semi-Analytic GRMHD Models
Taiki Ogihara, Tomohisa Kawashima, Ken Ohsuga
By performing general relativistic radiative transfer calculations, we show the radio images of relativistic jets including highly magnetized regions inside jet funnels, based on s…
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…
