A geometric distance measurement to the Galactic Center black hole with 0.3% uncertainty

R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauboeck +51

We present a 0.16% precise and 0.27% accurate determination of R0, the distance to the Galactic Center. Our measurement uses the star S2 on its 16-year orbit around the massive bla…
