Multiple Ga lactic Center research groups\, the Event Horizon Telescope\, and LIGO/Vir go continue to bring rapid-fire new observations to sharpen our understand ing of these exotic objects\, research highlighted by the 2020 Breakthroug h Prize in Fundamental Physics and the 2017 and 2020 Nobel Prizes in Physi cs. In this talk\, I will discuss the new Event Horizon Telescope image of Sgr A*. I’ll describe its unique variability and put it in the context of other time domain phenomena in the Galactic Center\, traced out over more than 20 years of observations by coordinated multi-wavelength campaigns. I will compare these studies to equally impressive observations of M87*\, the supergiant elliptical galaxy with several trillion stars in the conste llation Virgo. I will also briefly explore how we can continue to push the frontiers of black hole research with existing and next-generation observ atories.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, January 22nd\, 2025\n\nTime: 7:00 - 8:30 PM \n\nLocation: ENGMC 304 Room\, McConnell Engineering Building (3480 Univer sity St\, Montréal)\n\nFacebook event:  https://www.facebook.com/share/1BT uyhP5km/\n\nThe event is free and open to everyone. Mark your calendars—we hope to see you there!\n\nPhysics & TSI Outreach\n DTSTART:20250123T000000Z DTEND:20250123T013000Z LOCATION:McConnell Engineering Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0E9\, 34 80 rue University SUMMARY:Physics Public Talk - Into the Deep: Touring a Supermassive Black H ole (or Two!)
