Rotation in Event Horizon Telescope Movies

Rotation in Event Horizon Telescope Movies

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has produced images of M87* and Sagittarius A*, and will soon produce time sequences of images, or movies. In anticipation of this, we describe a technique to measure the rotation rate, or pattern speed Ω _p , from movies using an autocorrelation technique. We valid...
