Multi-Messenger Astrophysics of the Galactic Centre (Iau S322) - Colloqui

Klappentext This volume explores the revolution in our understanding of the Galactic Centre, a unique and extreme environment. Zusammenfassung IAU S322 explores the revolution in our understanding of the Galactic Centre! a unique and extreme environment! driven by novel instrumentation. It addresses the question: are anomalous! non-thermal signals signatures of dark matter or other new physics! or symptoms of the region's unusual astrophysics? Astronomers have much to learn from studying the Inner Galaxy. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. New results of interest; 2. Approaching the Event Horizon; 3. Dense gas in the Galactic Centre and its star formation potential; 4. Positrons; 5. Stellar end products in the Galactic Centre; 6. Dark matter in the Galactic Centre?; 7. X-rays and plasma; 8.
