广义相对论磁流体动力学（GRMHD）对人马座A*吸积流可能的磁滞盘（MAD）模拟预测了短时和长时变率、流中的块状结构、强磁场、重联驱动的通量爆发以及与其自转角动量对齐的喷流。我们进行了同步多波长观测以对这些预测施加一些约束。我们的分析支持了MAD流图景的大部分预测。尚不清楚是否有喷流的证据，但这可能是人马座A*周围复杂区域混淆的结果。此外，通过逆康普顿散射（ICS）加速粒子产生X射线发射的磁场几何形状，似乎与一种混合状态一致，即吸积流由类似MAD的磁场强度和类似标准与正常演化（SANE）的磁场几何形状表示。
英文摘要
General relativistic magneto-hydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations of the possibly magnetically arrested disk (MAD) of the accretion flow of Sgr A* predict short and long time variability, lumpiness in the flow, strong magnetic fields, reconnection driving flux eruptions and a jet aligned with its spin angular momentum. We carried out simultaneous multi-wavelength observations with the objective of placing some constraints on these predictions. Our analysis supports most of the predictions of the MAD picture of the flow. It is not clear if there is evidence for a jet, but this could be the result of confusion in the complex region surrounding Sgr A*. Also, the geometry of the magnetic fields, which accelerate particles to produce X-ray emission via inverse Compton Scattering (ICS), appears to be consistent with a hybrid state where the accretion flow is represented by MAD-like magnetic field strength and with Standard and Normal Evolution-like (SANE-like) magnetic field geometry.
