Astrophysical Results; Appendix A Color Versions of Selected Figures; Appendix B Table of Individual Sources; Appendix C Useful Quantities; Appendix D Table of Abbreviations; Bibliogruphy; IndexReviewing the fundamental instrumental techniques and current observational results, this book unveils the mysteries of the physical processes in the central parsec of our Milky Way: the super-massive black hole embedded in a central stellar cluster as well as the gas and dust in the circumnuclear region. The observations described cover the entire electromagnetic spectrum from decimeter radio-waves to high energy X-ray and ?-rays, and a comprehensive summary of up-to-date astrophysical interpretations is given.
