Black Hole Image May Explain How Matter Fuels Jets

They have now shared an image showing a magnetic field that could help explain how jets of matter can shoot from the poles of the matter. The team from EHT believes the field helps push matter toward the jets, thus feeding their energy.

This is the first time astronomers have been able to measure polarization, a signature of magnetic fields, this close to the edge of a black hole.  This image shows the polarized view of the black hole in M87. The lines mark the orientation of polarization, which is related to the magnetic field around the shadow of the black hole. | EHT photo
