We detected five SiO J=2-1, v=1 (86 GHz) masers in the innner 25 arcsec (1 pc) of the GC. All the detected 86 GHz SiO masers are previously known SiO J=1-0, v=1 (43 GHz) masers and associated with late-type stars. Eighteen 43 GHz SiO masers were detected within 50 arcsec (2 pc) of Sagittarius A*. Among them, seven are detected for the first time, which brings the total number of 43 GHz SiO masers to 22 in this region.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-02-05T09:47:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galactic center", "inner parsecs", "ghz sio masers", "atca detection", "sensitive australia telescope compact array" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 2, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 845137, "adsabs": "2011ASPC..439..260L" } } }
