Description

The field of black hole imaging - the observational appearance of a black hole when illuminated by its accretion disk - has quickly become one of our main tools in order to test the strong-field regime of the gravitational interaction. In this talk I will discuss the conceptual foundations of this field and discuss the features of images of several kinds of modified black holes and horizonless ultra-compact objects.
