Investigating the Relativistic Motion of the Stars Near the Supermassive Black Hole in the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The S-star cluster in the Galactic center allows us to study the physics close to a supermassive black hole, including distinctive dynamical tests of general relativity.

A Possible Common Physics Picture Reflected by the Gamma-Ray Emission of the Galactic Center

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Long-term observations of the Galactic center by Fermi and HESS have revealed a novel phenomenon: the high-energy gamma-ray spectrum from the gamma-ray source HESS J1745-290 exhibits a double power-law structure.

Misaligned Jets from Sgr A* and the Origin of Fermi/eROSITA Bubbles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
One of the leading explanations for the origin of Fermi Bubbles is past jet activity in the Galactic center supermassive black hole Sgr A ^* . The claimed jets are often assumed to be perpendicular to the Galactic plane.

A Disk in the Galactic Center in the Past? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We raise the question whether in the past a disk could have existed in our Galactic Center which has disappeared now. Our model for the interaction of a cool disk and a hot corona above (Liu et al. 2004) allows to estimate an upper limit for the mass that might have been present in a putative accretion disk after a last star forming event, but would ...

Improving the Angular Resolution of EGRET and New Limits on Supersymmetric Dark Matter Near the Galactic Center

open access: yes, 2002
Using the EGRET data and an improved point source analysis, including an energy dependent point spread function and an unbinned maximum likelihood technique, we have been able to place considerably lower limits on the gamma ray flux from the galactic ...

Median Statistics Estimate of the Distance to the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We show that error distributions of a compilation of 28 recent independent measurements of the distance from the Sun to the Galactic center, R0, are wider than a standard Gaussian and best fit by an n = 4 Student’s t probability density function.

The distance to the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractOne of the Milky Way's fundamental parameters is the distance of the Sun from the Galactic Center, R0. This article reviews the various ways of estimating R0, placing special emphasis on methods that have become possible recently. In particular, we focus on the geometric distance estimate made possible thanks to observations of individual ...

Dark matter interpretation of the Fermi-LAT observation toward the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Author(s): Karwin, Christopher; Murgia, Simona; Tait, Tim MP; Porter, Troy A; Tanedo, Philip | Abstract: The center of the Milky Way is predicted to be the brightest region of gamma-rays generated by self-annihilating dark matter particles.
