ANGELO RICARTE

I study how supermassive black holes interact with their environments from event horizon to cosmological scales.  I am a very active member of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration.  Along with Sara Issaoun, I co-led the project to make the first polarized image of the black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*.

I am a second-generation Filipino-American astrophysicist born and raised in La Mirada, CA.  I am now a Black Hole Initiative Fellow at Harvard University.  I completed my Ph.D at Yale University with Priya Natarajan, and now work mainly with Ramesh Narayan.
