The GRAVITY Young Stellar Object survey IV. The CO overtone emission in 51 Oph at sub-au scales
GRAVITY Collaboration, M. Koutoulaki, R. Garcia Lopez +69
51 Oph is a Herbig Ae/Be star that exhibits strong near-infrared CO ro-vibrational emission at 2.3 micron, most likely originating in the innermost regions of a circumstellar disc.…
Detection of faint stars near SgrA* with GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +58
The spin of the supermassive black hole that resides at the Galactic Centre can in principle be measured by accurate measurements of the orbits of stars that are much closer to Sgr…
Dynamically important magnetic fields near the event horizon of Sgr A*
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Jiménez-Rosales, J. Dexter +53
We study the time-variable linear polarisation of Sgr A* during a bright NIR flare observed with the GRAVITY instrument on July 28, 2018. Motivated by the time evolution of both th…
Sgr A* near-infrared flares from reconnection events in a magnetically arrested disc
J. Dexter, A. Tchekhovskoy, A. Jiménez-Rosales +14
Large-amplitude Sgr A* near-infrared flares result from energy injection into electrons near the black hole event horizon. Astrometry data show continuous rotation of the emission…
The Flux Distribution of Sgr A*
The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +54
The Galactic Center black hole Sagittarius A* is a variable NIR source that exhibits bright flux excursions called flares. The low-flux density turnover of the flux distribution is…
Detection of the Schwarzschild precession in the orbit of the star S2 near the Galactic centre massive black hole
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +53
The star S2 orbiting the compact radio source Sgr A* is a precision probe of the gravitational field around the closest massive black hole (candidate). Over the last 2.7 decades we…
A parameter survey of Sgr A* radiative models from GRMHD simulations with self-consistent electron heating
J. Dexter, A. Jiménez-Rosales, S. M. Ressler +13
The Galactic center black hole candidate Sgr A* is the best target for studies of low-luminosity accretion physics, including with near-infrared and submillimeter wavelength long b…
Modeling the orbital motion of Sgr A*'s near-infrared flares
The GRAVITY Collaboration, M. Bauböck, J. Dexter +53
Infrared observations of Sgr A* probe the region close to the event horizon of the black hole at the Galactic center. These observations can constrain the properties of low-luminos…
