| Abstract: |
I discuss four key questions about Galactic Center dynamics, their
implications for understanding both the environment of the Galactic
MBH and galactic nuclei in general, and the progress made in addressing
them. The questions are (1) Is the stellar system around the MBH relaxed?
(2) Is there a “dark cusp” around the MBH? (3) What is the origin
of the stellar disk(s)?, and (4) What is the origin of the S-stars? |
