The HST-Gaia Near-Infrared Astrometric Reference Frame near the Milky Way Galactic Center

Matthew W. Hosek, Tuan Do, Gregory D. Martinez +5

We present the first high-precision proper motion catalog, tied to the International Celestial Reference System (ICRS), of infrared astrometric reference stars within R 25"…

New Evidence for a Flux-independent Spectral Index of Sgr A* in the Near-infrared

Hadrien Paugnat, Tuan Do, Abhimat K. Gautam +11

In this work, we measure the spectral index of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) between the (1.6 m) and (2.2 m) broadband filters in the near-infrared (NIR), sampling o…

The Galactic Center in Color: Measuring Extinction with High-Proper-Motion Stars

Z. Haggard, A. M. Ghez, S. Sakai +6

The Milky Way's central parsec is a highly extinguished region with a population of high-proper-motion stars. We have tracked 145 stars for 10 years at wavelengths between 1…

An Estimate of the Binary Star Fraction Among Young Stars at the Galactic Center: Possible Evidence of a Radial Dependence

Abhimat K. Gautam, Tuan Do, Andrea M. Ghez +8

We present the first estimate of the intrinsic binary fraction of young stars across the central 0.4 pc surrounding the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the Milky Way Ga…

Co-moving groups around massive stars in the Nuclear Stellar Disk

Á. Martínez-Arranz, R. Schödel, F. Nogueras-Lara +2

During the last 30 Myr the nuclear stellar disk in the Galactic center has been the most prolific star forming region of the Milky Way when averaged by volume. Remarkably, t…

Near-Infrared Flux Distribution of Sgr A* from 2005-2022: Evidence for an Enhanced Accretion Episode in 2019

Grant C. Weldon, Tuan Do, Gunther Witzel +10

Sgr A* is the variable electromagnetic source associated with accretion onto the Galactic center supermassive black hole. While the near-infrared (NIR) variability of Sgr A* was sh…
