Astronomers investigate black hole jets with Event Horizon Telescope

TL;DR


Summary:
- The article discusses the ongoing research efforts by astronomers to investigate the jets of matter emitted by supermassive black holes using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT).
- The EHT, a global network of radio telescopes, has provided unprecedented high-resolution images of the immediate surroundings of black holes, including the iconic image of the black hole in the galaxy M87.
- Researchers are now using the EHT to study the jet structures and the processes that drive the ejection of matter from the vicinity of black holes, which could provide valuable insights into the physics of these extreme cosmic phenomena.
