Formation of the infalling Galactic Centre cloud G2 by collision of stellar winds

The search result changed since you submitted your search request. Documents might be displayed in a different sort order.

The gas cloud G2 is currently being tidally disrupted by the Galactic Centre super-massive black hole, Sgr A*. The region around the black hole is populated by ∼ 30 Wolf-Rayet stars, which produce strong outflows. Here we explore the possibility that gas clumps like G2 originate from the collision of stellar winds via the non-linear thin shell instability.
