Unprecedented variability of Sgr A* in NIR
Tuan Do, Gunther Witzel, Abhimat K. Gautam +10
The electromagnetic counterpart to the Galactic center supermassive black hole, Sgr A*, has been observed in the near-infrared for over 20 years and is known to be highly variable.…
Relativistic redshift of the star S0-2 orbiting the Galactic center supermassive black hole
Tuan Do, Aurelien Hees, Andrea Ghez +26
General Relativity predicts that a star passing close to a supermassive black hole should exhibit a relativistic redshift. We test this using observations of the Galactic center st…
Envisioning the next decade of Galactic Center science: a laboratory for the study of the physics and astrophysics of supermassive black holes
Tuan Do, Andrea Ghez, Jessica R. Lu +38
As the closest example of a galactic nucleus, the Galactic center (GC) presents an exquisite laboratory for learning about supermassive black holes (SMBH) and their environment. We…
The Fate of Binaries in the Galactic Center: The Mundane and the Exotic
Alexander P. Stephan, Smadar Naoz, Andrea M. Ghez +6
The Galactic Center (GC) is dominated by the gravity of a super-massive black hole (SMBH), Sagittarius A, and is suspected to contain a sizable population of binary stars. Such…
