Note on fundamental physics tests from black hole imaging: Comment on "Hunting for extra dimensions in the shadow of Sagittarius A$^*$"
Sunny Vagnozzi,
Luca Visinelli
Abstract:Several works over the past years have discussed the possibility of testing fundamental physics using Very Long Baseline Interferometry horizon-scale black hole (BH) images, such as the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) images of M87 * and Sagittarius A * (Sgr A * ), using the size r sh and deviation from circularity ∆C of the BH shadow. For the case of the EHT image of Sgr A * , limits on ∆C are not available due to the sparse interferometric coverage of the 2017 observations, alongside the short variability time… Show more
