Twelve years of spectroscopic monitoring in the Galactic Center: the closest look at S-stars near the black hole
M. Habibi, S. Gillessen, F. Martins +11
We study the young S-stars within a distance of 0.04 pc from the supermassive black hole in the center of our Galaxy. Given how inhospitable the region is for star formation, their…
3D AMR hydrosimulations of a compact source scenario for the Galactic Centre cloud G2
A. Ballone, M. Schartmann, A. Burkert +8
The nature of the gaseous and dusty cloud G2 in the Galactic Centre is still under debate. We present three-dimensional hydrodynamical adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) simulations of…
The Post-Pericenter Evolution of the Galactic Center Source G2
P. M. Plewa, S. Gillessen, O. Pfuhl +9
In early 2014 the fast-moving near-infrared source G2 reached its closest approach to the supermassive black hole Sgr A* in the Galactic Center. We report on the evolution of the i…
A powerful flare from Sgr A* confirms the synchrotron nature of the X-ray emission
G. Ponti, E. George, S. Scaringi +21
We present the first fully simultaneous fits to the NIR and X-ray spectral slope (and its evolution) during a very bright flare from Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole at the Milk…
3D AMR simulations of G2 as an outflow
A. Ballone, M. Schartmann, A. Burkert +8
We study the evolution of G2 in a \textit{Compact Source Scenario}, where G2 is the outflow from a low-mass central star moving on the observed orbit. This is done through 3D AMR s…
3D AMR simulations of the evolution of the diffuse gas cloud G2 in the Galactic Centre
M. Schartmann, A. Ballone, A. Burkert +8
With the help of 3D AMR hydrodynamical simulations we aim at understanding G2's nature, recent evolution and fate in the coming years. By exploring the possible parameter space of…
The G2+G2t complex as a fast and massive outflow?
A. Ballone, M. Schartmann, A. Burkert +8
Observations of the gas component of the cloud G2 in the Galactic Center have revealed its connection to a tail (G2t) lying on the same orbit. More recent studies indicate a connec…
3D adaptive mesh refinement simulations of the gas cloud G2 born within the disks of young stars in the Galactic Center
M. Schartmann, A. Ballone, A. Burkert +8
The dusty, ionized gas cloud G2 is currently passing the massive black hole in the Galactic Center at a distance of roughly 2400 Schwarzschild radii. We explore the possibility of…
