Detection of a drag force in G2's orbit: Measuring the density of the accretion flow onto Sgr A* at 1000 Schwarzschild radii
S. Gillessen, P. M. Plewa, F. Widmann +14
The Galactic Center black hole Sgr A* is the archetypical example of an underfed massive black hole. The extremely low accretion rate can be understood in radiatively inefficient a…
