Georgia Richardson - How we can see the invisible: imaging Black Holes
This talk will explore how the Event Horizon Telescope combined radio telescopes across the world is used to image the supermassive black hole at the centre of the galaxy M87. It will describe what the famous image shows, why it looks the way it does and how modern machine learning techniques were used to reconstruct and sharpen the image from incomplete data.
