A Kinematic Study of Wolf-Rayet Stars at the Galactic Center I: Binary Candidates and Constraints on the Binary Fraction
Rory O. Bentley, Tuan Do, Andrea Ghez +13
We report the binary fraction of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars within 0.5~pc of the Galactic center obtained through the longest time-baseline (1994-2024) kinematic study of this populatio…
Interstellar medium phases and abundances in the central parsec: A JWST MIRI/MRS view of the Galactic center
P. Vermot, A. Ciurlo, D. Rouan +8
We used newly obtained observations from the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) equipped with the Medium Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) aboard the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to e…
The JWST Galactic Center Survey -- A White Paper
Rainer Schoedel, Steve Longmore, Jonny Henshaw +111
The inner hundred parsecs of the Milky Way hosts the nearest supermassive black hole, largest reservoir of dense gas, greatest stellar density, hundreds of massive main and post ma…
Tidal phenomena in the Galactic Center: The curious case of X7
Wasif Shaqil, Diego Calderón, Stephan Rosswog +5
Several enigmatic dusty sources have been detected in the central parsec of the Galactic Center. Among them is X7, located at only 0.02 pc from the central super-massive blac…
Sagittarius A* -- The Milky Way Supermassive Black Hole
Anna Ciurlo, Mark R. Morris
This chapter provides a detailed overview of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, located in the dense Galactic Center region approx…
The Galactic Center in Color: Measuring Extinction with High-Proper-Motion Stars
Z. Haggard, A. M. Ghez, S. Sakai +6
The Milky Way's central parsec is a highly extinguished region with a population of high-proper-motion stars. We have tracked 145 stars for 10 years at wavelengths between 1…
