Rotation and stability of the circumnuclear gas disk in the Galactic Center potential by the ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Steven N. Longmore, Daniel Walker +26
We investigated the gravitational potential and mass distribution in the Galactic Center by examining the morphology and kinematics of the circumnuclear gaseous disk revealed by th…
ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center
Dylan M. Paré, Zi-Xuan Feng, Yue Hu +33
The Galactic Center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and non-thermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas…
Nonthermal Pressures: Key to Energy Balance and Structure Formation Near Sgr A* in the Milky Way
Farideh Mazoochi, Fatemeh S. Tabatabaei, Ashley T. Barnes +14
The circumnuclear region of the Galactic Center offers a unique laboratory to study energy balance and structure formation around Sgr A. This work investigates thermal and n…
Circum-nuclear eccentric gas flow in the Galactic Center revealed by ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Tomoharu Oka, Steven N. Longmore +41
We analyze the CS (J=2-1) line cube from the internal data release obtained by the large-scale program "ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)" to investigate the kinematic structure o…
3D MC I: X-ray Tomography Begins to Unravel the 3-D Structure of a Molecular Cloud in our Galaxy's Center
Samantha W. Brunker, Cara Battersby, Danya Alboslani +5
Astronomers have used observations of the Galactic gas and dust via infrared, microwave, and radio to study molecular clouds in extreme environments such as the Galactic center. Mo…
