论文摘要
银河系的银河系中心由于其接近度,可以进行天文观测,以研究天体物理学和基本物理学边缘的物理现象。因此,它提供了一个独特的实验室来探测重力,其中人们不仅可以测试一般相对性的基本预测,而且还可以伪造那些随着时间的推移而提出的理论来修改或扩展一般相对论;测试暗物质的不同范式;并将限制因素放在已配制为标准黑洞范式的替代方案的推定模型中。在这篇综述中,我们提供了银河中心观察史的一般概述,强调了重要性,尤其是对最小的可观察量表的重要性,它们在开放了一个新的途径方面,可以提高我们对超级量子紧凑物体周围的重力理解的新途径。
The Galactic Center of the Milky Way, thanks to its proximity, allows to perform astronomical observations that investigate physical phenomena at the edge of astrophysics and fundamental physics. As such, it offers a unique laboratory to probe gravity, where one can not only test the basic predictions of General Relativity, but is also able to falsify theories that, over time, have been proposed to modify or extend General Relativity; to test different paradigms of dark matter; and to place constraints on putative models that have been formulated as alternatives to the standard black hole paradigm in General Relativity. In this review we provide a general overview of the history of observations of the Galactic Center, emphasizing the importance, in particular on the smallest-observable scales, that they had in opening a new avenue to improve our understanding of the underlying theory of gravity in the surrounding of a supermassive compact object.
