Radiative Reconnection-powered TeV Flares from the Black Hole Magnetosphere in M87

Active galactic nuclei in general, and the supermassive black hole in M87 in particular, show bright and rapid gamma-ray flares up to energies of 100 GeV and above. For M87, the flares show multiwavelength components, and the variability timescale is comparable to the dynamical time of the event hor...
