A 600 minute near-infrared lightcurve of Sagittarius A*
L. Meyer, T. Do, A. Ghez +5
We present the longest, by a factor of two, near-infrared lightcurve from Sgr A* - the supermassive black hole in the Galactic center. Achieved by combining Keck and VLT data from…
IRS 13N: a new comoving group of sources at the Galactic Center
K. Muzic, R. Schoedel, A. Eckart +2
Context: The Galactic Center IRS 13E cluster is located ~3.2'' from SgrA*. It is an extremely dense stellar association containing several Wolf-Rayet and O-type stars, at least fou…
Polarized NIR and X-ray Flares from SgrA*
A. Eckart, F. K. Baganoff, M. Zamaninasab +18
Stellar dynamics indicate the presence of a super massive 3-4x10^6 Msun solm black hole at the Galactic Center. It is associated with the variable radio, near-infrared, and X-ray c…
Flares from spiral waves by lensing and time-delay amplification?
V. Karas, M. Dovciak, A. Eckart +1
Episodically accreting black holes are thought to produce flares when a chunk of particles is accelerated to high velocity near the black hole horizon. This also seems to be the ca…
On the orientation of the Sagittarius A* system
L. Meyer, R. Schoedel, A. Eckart +3
The near-infrared emission from the black hole at the Galactic center (Sgr A*) has unique properties. The most striking feature is a suggestive periodic sub-structure that has been…
The possibility of detecting Sagittarius A* at 8.6 mum
R. Schoedel, A. Eckart, K. Muzic +3
The Galactic Center was observed at 8.6 mum in order to detect a mid-infrared (MIR) counterpart of Sgr A*, parallel to NIR observations. The goal was to set constraints on possible…
