Compact mid-IR sources east of galactic center source IRS5
M. Perger, J. Moultaka, A. Eckart +3
There are four less prominent compact sources east of IRS5, the natures of which were unclear until now. We present near-infrared K-band long slit spectroscopy of the four sources…
On the orientation of the Sagittarius A* system
L. Meyer, R. Schoedel, A. Eckart +3
The near-infrared emission from the black hole at the Galactic center (Sgr A*) has unique properties. The most striking feature is a suggestive periodic sub-structure that has been…
The possibility of detecting Sagittarius A* at 8.6 mum
R. Schoedel, A. Eckart, K. Muzic +3
The Galactic Center was observed at 8.6 mum in order to detect a mid-infrared (MIR) counterpart of Sgr A*, parallel to NIR observations. The goal was to set constraints on possible…
K-band polarimetry of an Sgr A* flare with a clear sub-flare structure
L. Meyer, R. Schoedel, A. Eckart +3
Context: The supermassive black hole at the Galactic center, SgrA*, shows frequent radiation outbursts, often called 'flares'. In the near-infrared some of these flares were report…
Nearby AGN and their hosts in the near infrared
S. Fischer, C. Iserlohe, J. Zuther +4
We present near infrared ISAAC VLT observations of nine (0.01<z<0.06) Active Galactic Nuclei selected from the Hamburg/ESO Survey and the Veron-Cetty & Veron catalog. Hydrogen reco…
Dusty Sources at the Galactic Center: The N- and Q-band view with VISIR
T. Viehmann, A. Eckart, R. Schoedel +2
We present mid-infrared N- and Q-band photometry of the Galactic Center from images obtained with the mid-infrared camera VISIR at the ESO VLT in May 2004. The high resolution and…
