一个巨大的黑洞位于大多数,也许是所有星系的中心。位于我们的银河系中心的黑洞,提供了一个独特的实验室,可以详细研究大质量黑洞与它生长的恒星系统之间的联系和相互作用;研究极端密度、速度和潮汐场对恒星的影响;以及利用恒星探测中心暗质量,以及在弱场和强场极限下探测后牛顿引力。最近的结果,悬而未决的问题和未来的前景在更广泛的背景下,理论框架和物理过程的基础上进行审查。
A massive black hole resides in the center of most, perhaps all galaxies. The one in the center of our home galaxy, the Milky Way, provides a uniquely accessible laboratory for studying in detail the connections and interactions between a massive black hole and the stellar system in which it grows; for investigating the effects of extreme density, velocity and tidal fields on stars; and for using stars to probe the central dark mass and to probe post-Newtonian gravity in the weak- and strong-field limits. Recent results, open questions and future prospects are reviewed in the wider context of the theoretical framework and physical processes that underlie them.
