Towards the Event Horizon - The Vicinity of AGN at Micro-Arcsecond Resolution

Towards the Event Horizon - The Vicinity of AGN at Micro-Arcsecond Resolution

We summarize the present status of VLBI experiments at 3 mm (86 GHz), 2 mm (129-150 GHz) and 1.3 mm (215-230 GHz). We present and discuss a new 3 mm VLBI map of M87 (Virgo A), which has a spatial resolution of only approx. 20 Schwarzschild radii. We discuss recent VLBI results for SgrA* and argue in...
