Multistructured accretion flow of Sgr A* II: Signatures of a Cool Accretion Disk in Hydrodynamic Simulations of Stellar Winds

Mayura Balakrishnan, Christopher M. P. Russell, Lia Corrales +8

Hydrodynamic simulations of the stellar winds from Wolf-Rayet stars within the Galactic Center can provide predictions for the X-ray spectrum of supermassive black hole Sgr A*. Her…

Multistructured accretion flow of Sgr A* I: Examination of a RIAF model

Mayura Balakrishnan, Lia Corrales, Sera Markoff +8

The extreme low-luminosity supermassive black hole Sgr A* provides a unique laboratory in which to test radiatively inefficient accretion flow (RIAF) models. Previous fits to the q…

Constraining particle acceleration in Sgr A* with simultaneous GRAVITY, Spitzer, NuSTAR and Chandra observations

R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +81

We report the time-resolved spectral analysis of a bright near-infrared and moderate X-ray flare of Sgr A*. We obtained light curves in the -, -, and -bands in the mid- an…

The X-ray outburst of the Galactic Center magnetar over six years of Chandra observations

N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati, D. Vigano' +16

The magnetar SGR J1745-2900 discovered at parsecs distance from the Milky Way central black hole, Sagittarius A*, represents the closest pulsar to a supermassive black hole ever de…

NuSTAR and Chandra Observation of the Galactic Center Non-thermal X-ray Filament G0.13-0.11: A Pulsar Wind Nebula Driven Magnetic Filament

Shuo Zhang, Zhenlin Zhu, Hui Li +7

One of the most unique phenomena in the Galactic center region is the existence of numerous long and narrow filamentary structures within a few hundred parsecs of Sgr A.…

The Chandra High Resolution X-ray Spectrum of Quiescent Emission from Sgr A*

L. Corrales, F. K. Baganoff, Q. D. Wang +7

In quiescence, Sgr A* is surprisingly dim, shining 100,000 times less than expected for its environment. This problem has motivated a host of theoretical models to explain radiativ…
