...For the RML reconstructions in this Letter, we used two open-source software libraries that have been developed specifically for the EHT: eht-imaging109 (Chael et al. 2016, 2018, 2019) and SMILI110 (Akiyama et al. 2017a, 2017b, 2019)....

...Altogether, the results derived here provide a new way to study compact-object spacetimes and are complementary to the detection of gravitational waves from coalescing stellar-mass black holes with LIGO/Virgo (Abbott et al. 2016)....

...Evidence for stellar-mass black holes comes from X-ray (Webster & Murdin 1972; Remillard & McClintock 2006) and gravitational-wave measurements (Abbott et al. 2016)....

...These jets may be powered either by magnetic fields threading the event horizon, extracting the rotational energy from the black hole (Blandford & Znajek 1977), or from the accretion flow (Blandford & Payne 1982)....
