Rotation and stability of the circumnuclear gas disk in the Galactic Center potential by the ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)

Yoshiaki Sofue, Steven N. Longmore, Daniel Walker +26

We investigated the gravitational potential and mass distribution in the Galactic Center by examining the morphology and kinematics of the circumnuclear gaseous disk revealed by th…

Chemical analysis of the Milky Way's Nuclear Star Cluster: Evidence for a metallicity gradient

M. Schultheis, L. Serrano, B. Thorsbro +5

The Milky Way nuclear star cluster (MWNSC) is located together with its surrounding nuclear stellar disc (MWNSD) in the Galactic centre and they dominate the gravitational potentia…

Rhea-RT: Dynamical impact of Central Molecular Zone conditions on the properties of the interstellar medium and stellar feedback coupling

R. G. Tress, N. Brucy, P. Girichidis +22

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is an extreme star formation environment, characterized by higher density, higher turbulence, stronger orbital shear, and stronger magnetic field s…

Kinematic and extinction analysis of a potential spiral arm beyond the Galactic bar

Simran Joharle, Francisco Nogueras-Lara, Karl Fiteni

Determining the structure of the Milky Way is essential for understanding its morphology, dynamics, and evolution. However, studying its innermost regions is challenging due to hig…

GALACTICNUCLEUS: A high angular resolution JHKs imaging survey of the Galactic centre. V. Toward the GNS Second Data Release: Methodology, Photometric and Astrometric Performance

Á. Martínez Arranz, R. Schödel, H. Bouy +1

The center of the Milky Way is a unique environment of great astrophysical interest, but its extreme crowding and extinction make it difficult to study. The GALACTICNUCLEUS survey,…

The JWST-NIRCam View of Sagittarius C. III. The Extinction Curve

Lucía Bravo Ferres, Francisco Nogueras-Lara, Rainer Schödel +8

Determining the infrared extinction curve towards the Galactic centre is crucial for accurately correcting observed data and deriving the underlying stellar populations. However, e…

Mapping CO Ice in a Star-Forming Filament in the 3 kpc Arm with JWST

Savannah Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, Nazar Budaiev +14

CO gas emission is a fundamental tool for measuring column density, but in cold, dark clouds, much of the CO is locked away in ice. We present JWST results from observations of a s…

A spectroscopic map of the Galactic centre -- Observations and resolved stars

A. Feldmeier-Krause, N. Neumayer, A. Seth +10

The Galactic Centre region contains a dense accumulation of stars, which can be separated into two components: A flattened and dense nuclear star cluster (NSC), and a surrounding,…
