Properties of stars in the galactic center
Ott, Thomas; Eckart, Andreas; Genzel, Reinhard
MPE, Garching
ABSTRACT:
We present the results of a time-series analysis of high resolution photometry
covering 6 consecutive years. Some long-period variables already discovered by
other authors are approved and are probably Miras or luminous blue variables.
We also report on short period variables in the range of 3-10 days which give
a clue to the actual masses and radii of the stars in the innermost parsec of
our galaxy.
In addition, we report on the results of a search for embedded objects in the
galactic center, giving a hint on where these objects have formed and how old
they are.
