Circumnuclear eccentric gas flow in the Galactic Center revealed by ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)

Puntos clave

• To investigate the dynamics of gas flow around the galactic center using advanced observational techniques.
• Utilized ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) for high-resolution imaging.
• Conducted a survey focused on the circumnuclear region of the Galactic Center.
• Analyzed gas flow patterns and velocities within the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ).
• Identified eccentric gas flow patterns around the Galactic Center.
• Observed significant variations in gas velocity across the survey region.
• Provided new insights into the influences of gravitational forces on gas dynamics within galaxies.
