Superdiffusion at the Galactic Centre

Pau Amaro Seoane, Kostas Tzanavaris, Reinhard Genzel +14

Tracking S-star cluster orbits around Sgr A* calibrates orbital transport models for space-borne gravitational wave detectors. Standard kinetic theories model this cluster via loca…

Stellar rotation of S301 as a macroscopic gyroscope to test general relativity

Pau Amaro Seoane, Xian Chen, Alejandro Torres-Orjuela +16

Stellar trajectories around the Galactic Center provide a testing environment for general relativity. The intrinsic rotation of these stars evolves under covariant transport in cur…

S301 and friends: Measuring the spin of Sgr A*

T. Piran, P. Amaro-Seoane, B. Aytac +15

The discovery of S301 (GRAVITY Collaboration et al., 2026) with pericenter distance rp= 280rg and eccentricity e=0.9825, opens the prospect of measuring the spin parameter of Sgr A…

Discovery of a star sensitive to the spin of Sgr A*

K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +85

Residing in the center of the Milky Way, Sgr A* is the closest massive black hole (MBH). Its vicinity has allowed measuring individual stellar orbits around it. The stars act as te…

Impact of a granular mass distribution on the orbit of S2 in the Galactic center

Matteo Sadun Bordoni, Roberto Capuzzo Dolcetta, Aleksey Generozov +10

The orbit of the S2 star around Sagittarius A* provides a unique opportunity to test general relativity and study dynamical processes near a supermassive black hole. Observations h…

The S stars' zone of avoidance in the Galactic center

Aleksey Generozov, Hagai B. Perets, Matteo S. Bordoni +9

This paper investigates the origin and orbital evolution of S stars in the Galactic center using models of binary disruption and relaxation processes. We focus on explaining the re…
