General Relativistic effects and the NIR variability of Sgr A* II: A systematic approach to temporal asymmetry

Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Gunther Witzel, Michi Bauboeck +20

A systematic study, based on the third-moment structure function, of Sgr A*'s variability finds an exponential rise time $\ddot{I}{„}_{1,\mathrm{obs}}=14.8_{-1.5}^{+0.4}\mathrm{minutes}$ and d…
