Radio images obtained from the reanalysis

Caption

Radio images obtained from the reanalysis, showing the center of the elliptical galaxy M87. The upper left panel shows a close-up around the black hole, depicting the “core” (the red, round spot in the lower center) and “knots” (elongated spots on the center right and lower right). The wide-field image shows the jet extending diagonally to the upper right. The red spot on the right edge is a not real structured but an artifact created by the imaging method. (For details, please refer to the original paper.)
