We have developed a 230 and 345 GHz very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) receiver for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). With the receiver installed, the SPT has joined the global Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) array. The receiver optics…

The calibration of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) data has long been a time consuming process. The Korean VLBI Network (KVN) is a simple array consisting of three identical antennas. Because four frequencies are observed…

Very long baseline radio interferometry (VLBI) with ground-based observatories is limited by the size of Earth, the geographic distribution of antennas, and the transparency of the atmosphere. In this whitepaper, we present Capella, a…

We observed the quadruple gravitationally lensed image of MGJ0414+0534 on 23 November 1997 with a global VLBI array at 8.4 GHz. We report wide-field imaging results of its four components at submilliarcsecond resolution, displaying complex…

Horizon-scale imaging with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has provided transformative insights into supermassive black holes but its resolution and scope are limited by ground-based constraints such as the size of the Earth, its…
