This simulation shows a black hole image in total intensity (or ‘normal’ light, left) and in circular polarization (right). The blue and red colors of the circular polarization movie correspond to light rotating clockwise and counterclockwise, respectively. Credit: Angelo Ricarte

M87 ring in circularly polarized (CP) light came out. Images slightly differ but we've an upper limit on the resolved CP on horizon scales for the first time. More in: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384… This paper concludes analysis of EHT 2017 data from M87. All data is also public today!!

Big congrats 👏 to our Event Horizon 'Scope colleague Michael Johnson of Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian & his collaborator. Their research on the substructure & properties of black hole photon rings can lead to precise measurements of the BH spin & mass.
