Probing dark matter crests with white dwarfs and IMBHs
Pau Amaro-Seoane, Jordi Casanellas, Rainer Schödel +2
White dwarfs (WDs) are the most promising captors of dark matter (DM) particles in the crests that are expected to build up in the cores of dense stellar clusters. The DM particles…
Spectroscopically Identified Intermediate Age Stars at 0.5 - 3 pc Distance from Sgr A*
Shogo Nishiyama, Rainer Schoedel, Tatsuhito Yoshikawa +3
<Context.> Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) at the dynamical center of galaxies appear to have a complex star formation history. This suggests repeated star formation even in the influ…
KMOS view of the Galactic Centre I. Young stars are centrally concentrated
A. Feldmeier-Krause, N. Neumayer, R. Schödel +7
The Galactic centre hosts a crowded, dense nuclear star cluster with a half-light radius of 4 pc. Most of the stars in the Galactic centre are cool late-type stars, but there are a…
Compact Radio Sources within 30" of Sgr A*: Proper Motions, Stellar Winds and the Accretion Rate onto Sgr A*
F. Yusef-Zadeh, H. Bushouse, R. Schödel +5
Recent broad-band 34 and 44 GHz radio continuum observations of the Galactic center have revealed 41 massive stars identified with near-IR counterparts, as well as 44 proplyd candi…
The Milky Way's nuclear star cluster and massive black hole
Rainer Schödel
Because of its nearness to Earth, the centre of the Milky Way is the only galaxy nucleus in which we can study the characteristics, distribution, kinematics, and dynamics of the st…
