  2. Event Horizon Telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_Horizon_Telescope

    The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a telescope array consisting of a global network of radio telescopes.The EHT project combines data from several very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) stations around Earth, which form a combined array with an angular resolution sufficient to observe objects the size of a supermassive black hole's event horizon.

  3. Messier 87 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_87

    M87 was observed by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) during much of 2017. [35] The event horizon of the black hole at the center was directly imaged by the EHT, [36] then revealed in a press conference on the issue date stated, filtering out from this the first image of a black hole's shadow. [37]

  4. CHIRP (algorithm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIRP_(algorithm)

    First combined image reconstruction of the event horizon of a black hole captured by the Event Horizon Telescope.[1]CHIRP (Continuous High-resolution Image Reconstruction using Patch priors) is a Bayesian algorithm used to perform a deconvolution on images created in radio astronomy.

    Some of the Atacama Large Millimeter Array radio telescopes The eight radio telescopes of the Smithsonian Submillimeter Array, located at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawai'i VLBI was used to create the first image of a black hole, imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope and published in April 2019. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheperd_S._Doeleman

    Sheperd "Shep" S. Doeleman (born 1967) is an American astrophysicist. His research focuses on imaging supermassive black holes with sufficient resolution to directly observe the event horizon.

  7. Tests of general relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tests_of_general_relativity

    The event horizon of the black hole at the center of M87 was directly imaged at the wavelength of radio waves by the EHT; the image was revealed in a press conference on 10 April 2019, the first image of a black hole's event horizon.

  8. Black hole information paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox

    The first image (silhouette or shadow) of a black hole, taken of the supermassive black hole in M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, released in April 2019. The black hole information paradox [1] is a paradox that appears when the predictions of quantum mechanics and general relativity are combined.

    She is the Modeling lead and member of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) that released the first image of a black hole. [3] [4] Özel received the Maria Goeppert Mayer award from the American Physical Society in 2013 [5] for her outstanding contributions to neutron star astrophysics.
