The Galactic Center: A Laboratory for Fundamental Astrophysics and Galactic Nuclei
A. Ghez, M. Morris, J. Lu +24
As the closest example of a galactic nucleus, the Galactic center presents an exquisite laboratory for learning about supermassive black holes (SMBH) and their environs. Detailed s…
R Coronae Borealis stars in the Galactic Bulge discovered by EROS-2
P. Tisserand, J. B. Marquette, P. R. Wood +33
Rare types of variable star may give unique insight into short-lived stages of stellar evolution. The systematic monitoring of millions of stars and advanced light curve analysis t…
Taking the Measure of the Universe: Precision Astrometry with SIM PlanetQuest
Stephen C. Unwin, Michael Shao, Angelle M. Tanner +33
Precision astrometry at microarcsecond accuracy has application to a wide range of astrophysical problems. This paper is a study of the science questions that can be addressed usin…
Bulge Microlensing Optical Depth from EROS 2 observations
C. Afonso, J. -N. Albert, C. Alard +7
We present a measurement of the microlensing optical depth toward the Galactic bulge based on the analysis of 15 contiguous1 square degrees fields centered on (l=2.5 deg, b=-4.0 de…
