Successful defense of our latest #astrophysics PhD @Radboud_uni, Jesse Vos, supervised by Monika Moscibrodzka. He was looking at plasmoids orbiting our Galactic Center black hole and made pioneering particle-in-cell-simulations of the entire near black hole region. This shows how and where the particles are heated that produce the radio light we measure. Jet-sheath and equatorial plasmoids are indeed key regions. as we had assumed before.
