Consistency of the Infrared Variability of Sgr A* over 22 years
Zhuo Chen, E. Gallego-Cano, T. Do +14
We report new infrared measurements of the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center, Sgr A*, over a decade that was previously inaccessible at these wavelengths. This enables…
Relativistic redshift of the star S0-2 orbiting the Galactic center supermassive black hole
Tuan Do, Aurelien Hees, Andrea Ghez +26
General Relativity predicts that a star passing close to a supermassive black hole should exhibit a relativistic redshift. We test this using observations of the Galactic center st…
An adaptive scheduling tool to optimize measurements to reach a scientific objective: methodology and application to the measurements of stellar orbits in the Galactic Center
A. Hees, A. Dehghanfar, T. Do +4
In various fields of physics and astronomy, access to experimental facilities or to telescopes is becoming more and more competitive and limited. It becomes therefore important to…
Envisioning the next decade of Galactic Center science: a laboratory for the study of the physics and astrophysics of supermassive black holes
Tuan Do, Andrea Ghez, Jessica R. Lu +38
As the closest example of a galactic nucleus, the Galactic center (GC) presents an exquisite laboratory for learning about supermassive black holes (SMBH) and their environment. We…
Measuring the effects of General Relativity at the Galactic Center with Future Extremely Large Telescopes
Tuan Do, Aurelien Hees, Arezu Dehghanfar +2
The Galactic center offers us a unique opportunity to test General Relativity (GR) with the orbits of stars around a supermassive black hole. Observations of these stars have been…
Testing the gravitational theory with short-period stars around our Galactic Center
A. Hees, A. M. Ghez, T. Do +19
Motion of short-period stars orbiting the supermassive black hole in our Galactic Center has been monitored for more than 20 years. These observations are currently offering a new…
