Scientists Make First-Ever Detection of Mid-IR Flares in Sgr A* | Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian
National Harbor, MD - Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team of scientists led by astronomers from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (CfA) detected a Mid-Infrared (mid-IR) flare from the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the heart of the Milky Way galaxy for the first time. In simultaneous observations, the team found a radio counterpart flare lagging behind.
