报告摘要/Abstract
The Galactic center is a unique laboratory of studying a supermassive black hole and its surrounding physical environments. In this talk, I’ll talk about stellar dynamics in the vicinity of the central supermassive compact object of our galaxy and the prospects for constraining the black hole metric and for testing general relativity, along with an overview of the work awarded by the Nobel prize in Physics 2020.
