A Novel Approach to 3D Dust Mapping of the Central Molecular Zone

Arianna Vasini, Mattia C. Sormani, Jason L. Sanders +12

The 3D distribution of dust and gas in the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is key to understanding gas inflows toward the Galactic Centre (GC), the process of star formati…

Constraining young massive cluster properties with radio-continuum observations: The Arches cluster

M. Cano-González, R. Schödel, A. Alberdi +4

The Arches cluster, located in the Galactic Centre (GC) is one of the best astrophysical laboratories to study the properties of massive stars and young massive clusters (YMCs). Ho…

Age and metallicity of the Milky Way's nuclear star cluster studied at 3 pc from Sagittarius A*

E. Gallego-Cano, R. Schödel, T. K. Fritz +5

The Milky Way's nuclear star cluster (NSC) is a unique laboratory to study the formation and evolution of dense stellar systems around a supermassive black hole. Previous work sugg…

A spectroscopic map of the Galactic centre -- Observations and resolved stars

A. Feldmeier-Krause, N. Neumayer, A. Seth +10

The Galactic Centre region contains a dense accumulation of stars, which can be separated into two components: A flattened and dense nuclear star cluster (NSC), and a surrounding,…

The JWST-NIRCam View of Sagittarius C. II. Evidence for Magnetically Dominated HII Regions in the CMZ

John Bally, Samuel Crowe, Rubén Fedriani +11

We present JWST-NIRCam narrow-band, 4.05 m Brackett- images of the Sgr C HII region, located in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Galaxy. Unlike any HII region in the S…

Chemical Abundances in the Nuclear Star Cluster of the Milky Way: alpha-Element Trends and Their Similarities with the Inner Bulge

N. Ryde, G. Nandakumar, M. Schultheis +15

A chemical characterization of the Galactic Center is essential for understanding its formation and structural evolution. Trends of alpha-elements, such as Mg, Si, and Ca, serve as…
