![]() | A polarimetric view of black hole accretion flows and jets Speaker(s): Monika Moscibrodzka
Abstract: The Event Horizon Telescope is a global effort to construct an
Earth-sized virtual radio telescope array, with the goal to make pictures and
movies of two nearby supermassive black holes. A detailed theoretical
understanding of black hole accretion is now crucial to interpret these
observations.... read more

![]() | Two-temperature disk + isothermal jet model for Sgr A* and M87 Speaker(s): Monika Moscibrodzka
Abstract: The super-massive black hole in the center of the Milky Way, Sgr~A*, displays a nearly flat radio spectrum which is typical for jets in Active Galactic Nuclei. Indeed, time-dependent, magnetized models of radiatively inefficient accretion flows, which are commonly used to explain emission of Sgr A* ... read more
