The mass distribution in the Galactic Centre from interferometric astrometry of multiple stellar orbits
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +62
The stars orbiting the compact radio source Sgr A* in the Galactic Centre are precision probes of the gravitational field around the closest massive black hole. In addition to adap…
Deep Images of the Galactic Center with GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +65
Stellar orbits at the Galactic Center provide a very clean probe of the gravitational potential of the supermassive black hole. They can be studied with unique precision, beyond th…
Flaremodel: An open-source Python package for one-zone numerical modelling of synchrotron sources
Y. Dallilar, S. von Fellenberg, M. Bauböck +13
Synchrotron processes, the radiative processes associated with the interaction of energetic charged particles with magnetic field, are of interest in many areas in astronomy, from…
Constraining particle acceleration in Sgr A* with simultaneous GRAVITY, Spitzer, NuSTAR and Chandra observations
R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +81
We report the time-resolved spectral analysis of a bright near-infrared and moderate X-ray flare of Sgr A*. We obtained light curves in the -, -, and -bands in the mid- an…
MOLsphere and pulsations of the Galactic Center's red supergiant GCIRS 7 from VLTI/GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, G. Rodríguez-Coira, T. Paumard +55
GCIRS 7, the brightest star in the Galactic central parsec, formed Myr ago together with dozens of massive stars in a disk orbiting the central black-hole. It has been argu…
A measure of the size of the magnetospheric accretion region in TW Hydrae
R. Garcia Lopez, A. Natta, A. Caratti o Garatti +69
Stars form by accreting material from their surrounding disks. There is a consensus that matter flowing through the disk is channelled onto the stellar surface by the stellar magne…
Relative depolarization of the black hole photon ring in GRMHD models of Sgr A* and M87*
A. Jiménez-Rosales, J. Dexter, S. M. Ressler +15
Using general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of accreting black holes, we show that a suitable subtraction of the linear polarization per pixel from total intensity i…
Improved GRAVITY astrometric accuracy from modeling of optical aberrations
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +60
The GRAVITY instrument on the ESO VLTI pioneers the field of high-precision near-infrared interferometry by providing astrometry at the as level. Measurements at such…
