The infrared K-band identification of the DSO/G2 source from VLT and Keck data
Andreas Eckart, M. Horrobin, S. Britzen +24
A fast moving infrared excess source (G2) which is widely interpreted as a core-less gas and dust cloud approaches Sagittarius A* (SgrA*) on a presumably elliptical orbit. VLT K_s-…
The Galactic Center as a Paradigm for Low Luminosity Nuclei? The K-band identification of the DSO/G2 source from VLT and Keck data
Andreas Eckart, S. Britzen, M. Horrobin +27
The super-massive 4 million solar mass black hole (SMBH) SgrA* shows flare emission from the millimeter to the X-ray domain. The nucleus of the Milky Way has properties (stellar cl…
Source-intrinsic near-infrared properties of Sgr A*: Total intensity measurements
G. Witzel, A. Eckart, M. Bremer +12
We present a comprehensive data description for Ks-band measurements of Sgr A*. We characterize the statistical properties of the variability of Sgr A* in the near-infrared, which…
Flare emission from Sagittarius A*
A. Eckart, M. Garcia-Marin, S. N. Vogel +18
Based on Bremer et al. (2011) and Eckart et al. (2012) we report on simultaneous observations and modeling of the millimeter, near-infrared, and X-ray flare emission of the source…
The S-Star Cluster at the Center of the Milky Way: On the nature of diffuse NIR emission in the inner tenth of a parsec
Nadeen Sabha, Andreas Eckart, David Merritt +9
Sagittarius A*, the super-massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, is surrounded by a small cluster of high velocity stars, known as the S-stars. We aim to constrain the…
Near-infrared polarimetry as a tool for testing properties of accreting super-massive black holes
M. Zamaninasab, A. Eckart, M. Dovciak +10
Several massive black holes exhibit flux variability on time scales that correspond to source sizes of the order of few Schwarzschild radii. We survey the potential of near-infrare…
