الوصف: | There have been many speculations about the character of the dusty object moving fast in the vicinity of the Galactic centre black hole. The recent detection of polarized continuum emission provides new constraints for the models. The fact that the object is intrinsically polarized implies that it is non-spherical. The authors propose that a young star developing a bow shock can explain the main characteristics. However, more observations in the future are needed for the final confirmation of the nature of the source. Comment: 4 pages, to appear in the June issue of The Observatory (A Review of Astronomy) |
