Description for The Multi-Messenger Astrophysics of the Galactic Centre (IAU S322)
hardcover. This volume explores the revolution in our understanding of the Galactic Centre, a unique and extreme environment. Editor(s): Crocker, Roland M.; Longmore, Steven N.; Bicknell, Geoffrey V. Series: Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union Symposia and Colloquia. Num Pages: 500 pages. BIC Classification: PHVB. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). .
The Galactic Centre represents a unique and extreme environment in the Galaxy. It hosts the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, its most concentrated dense gas reservoir and its most extreme star-formation environment. The Galactic Centre is therefore our nearest analogue to both an active galactic nucleus (AGN) and a starburst system. IAU Symposium 322 explores the revolution in our understanding of the Galactic Centre, driven by novel instrumentation including NuSTAR, ALMA, EHT and, in the near future, the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). A number of anomalous, non-thermal signals have recently been discovered emanating from the Inner Galaxy. This volume addresses ... Read more
