The Milky Way center studied with the MeerKAT radio telescope
Two articles accepted for publication, one in “The Astrophysical Journal” and one in “The Astrophysical Journal Letters”, report different aspects of a study on the Milky Way’s center. A team of researchers used the MeerKAT radio telescope to examine the galactic center with a clarity and depth never obtained before. This made it possible to obtain new information on radio bubbles, supernova remnants, star nurseries, the region around the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and many radio filaments.
