New Estimates of the Spin and Accretion Rate of the Black Hole M87*

In this Letter, we use the imaging results of M87* from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) to calculate the rotational velocity of the inner edge of the accretion disk and find a value of ∼0.14 c . We then calculate the dimensionless spin parameter, a , of the black hole, obtaining a value of a  ∼ 0....
