Modeling Reconstructed Images of Jets Launched by SANE Super-Eddington Accretion Flows Around SMBHs with the ngEHT

Brandon Curd, Razieh Emami, Freek Roelofs +1

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) around super massive black holes (SMBHs) are a potential laboratory to study super-Eddington accretion disks and sometimes result in powerful jets or…

Tracing the hot spot motion using the next generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT)

Razieh Emami, Paul Tiede, Sheperd S. Doeleman +19

We propose to trace the dynamical motion of a shearing hot spot near the SgrA* source through a dynamical image reconstruction algorithm, StarWarps. Such a hot spot may form as the…

The science case and challenges of space-borne sub-millimeter interferometry

Leonid I. Gurvits, Zsolt Paragi, Ricardo I. Amils +51

Ultra-high angular resolution in astronomy has always been an important vehicle for making fundamental discoveries. Recent results in direct imaging of the vicinity of the supermas…

MeqSilhouette v2: Spectrally-resolved polarimetric synthetic data generation for the Event Horizon Telescope

Iniyan Natarajan, Roger Deane, Iván Martí-Vidal +17

We present MeqSilhouette v2.0 (MeqSv2), a fully polarimetric, time-and frequency-resolved synthetic data generation software for simulating millimetre (mm) wavelength very long bas…

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…

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…
