Future Instrumentation for the EHT at JCMT
Abstract
The Maunakea Observatories played an important role in the success of the Event Horizon Telescope and the image of Powehi. We describe the evolution of the instrumentation at JCMT used for VLBI and introduce Namakanui, with its three receivers (at 86GHz, 230GHz and 345GHz) that is currently being commissioned, that will enable JCMT participation in future EHT at higher frequency.
