A powerful new technique is poised to revolutionize how astronomers observe black holes, by producing sharp, multicolored ...

The EHT is not a single telescope like the JWST, but an array of individual radio telescopes. JWST observes in the micrometer (near infrared) range with a resolution of about 0.1 arcsecond, where ...

The Earth’s atmosphere tends to absorb more light at 870µm than at 1.3mm, meaning that less of this lower-wavelength light reaches the sensors of the EHT’s array.

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration has conducted test observations, using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and other facilities, that achieved the highest ...

By linking together three EHT telescopes—the IRAM 30-meter telescope atop Pico Veleta, Spain and the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope and Submillimeter Array on Maunakea, Hawai'i—the astronomers ...

The next-generation Event Horizon Telescope, or ngEHT for short, would add a dedicated network of approximately 10 new antennas to the collaboration’s existing international array. The EHT team ...

The expanding EHT array will play an important role in the future discoveries on these fascinating objects," says Röder. J. Anton Zensus, ...

In a major leap forward, scientists, using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), have captured the sharpest images yet of distant galactic centers. Using light at a frequency of 345 GHz, they’ve ...

EHT collaboration, CC BY 4.0. ... "At the same time, however, we confirm that the EHT array has the power to find black hole features that we could not see until now," Miyoshi told Newsweek.

An international team of researchers have put this new technique to the test using three of the 12 telescopes belonging to the EHT array, including the IRAM 30-meter telescope atop Pico Veleta in ...
