Unveiling the Massive Stars in the Galactic Center
Hui Dong, Jon Mauerhan, Mark R. Morris +2
We present our recent efforts to unveil and understand the origin of massive stars outside the three massive star clusters in the Galactic Center. From our HST/NICMOS survey of the…
HST Paschen-alpha Survey of the Galactic Center: Data Reduction and Products
H. Dong, Q. D. Wang, A. Cotera +7
Our HST/NICMOS Pa survey of the Galactic center (GC) provides a uniform, panoramic, high-resolution map of stars and ionized diffuse gas in the central 416 arcmin^2 of the Galaxy.…
Properties of the Compact HII Region Complex G-0.02-0.07
Elisabeth Mills, Mark R. Morris, Cornelia Lang +4
We present new extinction maps and high-resolution Paschen alpha images of G-0.02-0.07, a complex of compact HII regions located adjacent to the M-0.02-0.07 giant molecular cloud,…
Isolated Wolf-Rayet Stars and O Supergiants in the Galactic Center Region Identified via Paschen-alpha Excess
Jon Mauerhan, Angela Cotera, Hui Dong +4
We report the discovery of 19 hot, evolved, massive stars near the Galactic center region (GCR). These objects were selected for spectroscopy owing to their detection as strong sou…
Discovery of a Luminous Blue Variable with an Ejection Nebula Near the Quintuplet Cluster
Jon C. Mauerhan, Mark R. Morris, Angela S. Cotera +5
We report on the discovery of a luminous blue variable (LBV) lying ~7 pc in projection from the Quintuplet cluster. This source, which we call LBV G0.120-0.048, was selected for sp…
HST Palpha Survey of the Galactic Center -- Searching the missing young stellar populations within the Galactic Center
H. Dong, Q. D. Wang, A. Cotera +6
We present preliminary results of our \hst Pa survey of the Galactic Center (\gc), which maps the central 0.650.25 degrees around Sgr A*. This survey provides us with a…
