Kinematics of the old stellar population at the Galactic Center

S. Trippe, S. Gillessen, O. E. Gerhard +8

We aim at a detailed description of the kinematic properties of the old, (several Gyrs) late-type CO-absorption star population among the Galactic centre (GC) cluster stars. We app…

Evidence for a Long-Standing Top-Heavy IMF in the Central Parsec of the Galaxy

H. Maness, F. Martins, S. Trippe +10

We classify 329 late-type giants within 1 parsec of Sgr A*, using the adaptive optics integral field spectrometer SINFONI on the VLT. These observations represent the deepest spect…

A polarised infrared flare from Sagittarius A* and the signatures of orbiting plasma hotspots

S. Trippe, T. Paumard, T. Ott +4

In this article we summarise and discuss the infrared, radio, and X-ray emission from the supermassive black hole in the Galactic Centre, SgrA*. We include new results from near-in…

Polarimetry of near-infrared flares from Sagittarius A*

A. Eckart, R. Schoedel, L. Meyer +3

Context: We report new polarization measurements of the variable near-infrared emission of the SgrA* counterpart associated with the massive 3--4 10^6 solar masses Black Hole at th…

The Two Young Star Disks in the Central Parsec of the Galaxy: Properties, Dynamics and Formation

T. Paumard, R. Genzel, F. Martins +11

We report the definite spectroscopic identification of 41 OB supergiants, giants and main sequence stars in the central parsec of the Galaxy. Detection of their absorption lines ha…

The Flare Activity of SgrA*; New Coordinated mm to X-Ray Observations

A. Eckart, F. K. Baganoff, R. Schoedel +17

We report new simultaneous near-infrared/sub-millimeter/X-ray observations of the SgrA* counterpart associated with the massive 3-4x10**6 solar mass black hole at the Galactic Cent…
