A Millisecond Pulsar Binary Embedded in a Galactic Center Radio Filament
The Galactic center is host to a population of extraordinary radio filaments, thin linear structures that trace out magnetic field lines running perpendicular to the Galactic plane.

The Galactic centre is a unique target to study the central region of a galaxy. At a distance of only 8 kpc from Earth, we find the main components of galaxy nuclei: a supermassive black hole, billions of stars, and a large amount of interstellar gas and dust in the central molecular zone, with ongoing star formation.

Low-frequency Absorption and Radio Recombination Line Features of the Galactic Center Lobe
The Galactic center lobe (GCL) is a ∼1° object located north of the Galactic center. In the mid-infrared, the GCL appears as two 8.0 μ m filaments that roughly define an ellipse.

SMM detection of interstellar Al-26 gamma radiation [PDF]
The gamma ray spectrometer on the Solar Maximum Mission Satellite has detected the interstellar Al-26 line when the Galactic center traversed its aperture. The center of the emission is consistent with the location of the Galactic center, but the spatial

The power of monitoring stellar orbits
The center of the Milky Way hosts a massive black hole. The observational evidence for its existence is overwhelming. The compact radio source Sgr A* has been associated with a black hole since its discovery.

First Mid-infrared Detection and Modeling of a Flare from Sgr A*
The time-variable emission from the accretion flow of Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole at the Galactic center, has long been examined in the radio-to-millimeter, near-infrared (NIR), and X-ray regimes of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Magnetic Field Strengths in the Vicinity of Sgr A* via 18 cm Zeeman Observations
Very Large Array (VLA) observations of 18 cm OH absorption lines were used to determine the strength of the line-of-sight magnetic field in the Galactic center region. This study is an extension of the VLA OH Zeeman observations of Killeen et al.

Subclustering and Star Formation Efficiency in Three Protoclusters in the Central Molecular Zone
We present the highest-resolution (∼0 $\mathop{.}\limits^{^{\prime\prime} }$ 04) Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array 1.3 mm continuum observations so far of three massive star-forming clumps in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), namely 20 km s ...
