A polarised infrared flare from Sagittarius A* and the signatures of orbiting plasma hotspots

S. Trippe, T. Paumard, T. Ott +4

In this article we summarise and discuss the infrared, radio, and X-ray emission from the supermassive black hole in the Galactic Centre, SgrA*. We include new results from near-in…

The Two Young Star Disks in the Central Parsec of the Galaxy: Properties, Dynamics and Formation

T. Paumard, R. Genzel, F. Martins +11

We report the definite spectroscopic identification of 41 OB supergiants, giants and main sequence stars in the central parsec of the Galaxy. Detection of their absorption lines ha…

Atmospheric Turbulence Compensation with Laser Phase Shifting Interferometry

S. Rabien, F. Eisenhauer, R. Genzel +2

Laser guide stars with adaptive optics allow astronomical image correction in the absence of a natural guide star. Single guide star systems with a star created in the earth's sodi…

Clockwise Stellar Disk and the Dark Mass in the Galactic Center

A. M. Beloborodov, Y. Levin, F. Eisenhauer +4

Two disks of young stars have recently been discovered in the Galactic Center. The disks are rotating in the gravitational field of the central black hole at radii r=0.1-0.3 pc and…
