Journal ArticleDOI

First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole

Kazunori Akiyama, +406 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Event Horizon Telescope was used to reconstruct event-horizon-scale images of the supermassive black hole candidate in the center of the giant elliptical galaxy M87.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chandra X-ray Spectroscopic Imaging of Sgr A* and the Central Parsec of the Galaxy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained the first high-spatial-resolution (~1 arcsec), hard X-ray (0.5-7 keV) image of the central 40 pc (17 arcmin) of the Milky Way Galaxy and have discovered an Xray source, CXOGC J174540.
Journal ArticleDOI

First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. V. Physical Origin of the Asymmetric Ring

Kazunori Akiyama, +262 more
TL;DR: In this article, a large library of models based on general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations and synthetic images produced by GRS was constructed and compared with the observed visibilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid X-ray flaring from the direction of the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Centre

TL;DR: The discovery of rapid X-ray flaring from the direction of Sagittarius A* provides compelling evidence that the emission is coming from the accretion of gas onto a supermassive black hole at the Galactic Centre.
