    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittarius_A*

    Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ˈ eɪ s t ɑːr / SADGE-AY-star [3]), is the supermassive black hole [4] [5] [6] at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way.Viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius, about 5.6° south of the ecliptic, [7] visually close to the Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Lambda Scorpii.

  3. Sagittarius A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittarius_A

    Sagittarius A (Sgr A) is a complex radio source at the center of the Milky Way, which contains a supermassive black hole. It is located between Scorpius and Sagittarius , and is hidden from view at optical wavelengths by large clouds of cosmic dust in the spiral arms of the Milky Way.

  4. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    In some applications wire sizes are specified as the cross sectional area of the wire, usually in mm 2. Advantages of this system include the ability to readily calculate the physical dimensions or weight of wire, ability to take account of non-circular wire, and ease of calculation of electrical properties.

  5. Schwarzschild radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius

    The Schwarzschild radius was named after the German astronomer Karl Schwarzschild, who calculated this exact solution for the theory of general relativity in 1916. The Schwarzschild radius is given as =, where G is the gravitational constant, M is the object mass, and c is the speed of light.

  6. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    However, AWG is dissimilar to IEC 60228, the metric wire-size standard used in most parts of the world, based directly on the wire cross-section area (in square millimetres, mm 2). The AWG tables are for a single, solid and round conductor. The AWG of a stranded wire is determined by the cross-sectional area of the equivalent solid conductor.

  8. S62 (star) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S62_(star)

    In addition, S62 has a highly eccentric orbit which makes it pass very close to Sgr A*, only 16 astronomical units (2.4 × 10 9 km), less than the distance between Uranus and the Sun. The star therefore passes only about 215 times the Schwarzschild radius of Sgr A* (the Schwarzschild radius of Sgr A* is approximately 0.082 AU, or 12 million km).
