Summary
[edit]DescriptionGalactic centre orbits.svg |
English: Inferred well-determined orbits of 6 stars around supermassive black hole candidate Sagittarius A* at the Milky Way galactic centre based on data from "SINFONI in the Galactic Center: Young Stars and Infrared Flares in the Central Light-Month" by Eisenhauer et al, The Astrophysical Journal, 628:246-259, 2005.
Note: For the comparison image, the scale is assumed to be 7940 AU/arcsecond (1" in radians × 7.94 kpc in AU) or 7.94 AU/pixel in SVG. At this scale, the distance between the Sun and Proxima Centauri (its nearest star) is 33.8 times (268 000 AU ÷ 7940 AU/arcsecond) the height of the chart. |
