Black hole, Sgr A*Abstract
The black hole is one of the important celestial bodies in the universe, and understanding its properties is important to help us understand universe and our homeland Milky way. My aims are to explore the properties of center black hole on Milky Way, Sagittarius A (Sgr A*). I first review the properties of black hole in the literature, including the formation of black hole, classification, and observations of black holes. Then, I examine the properties of Sgr A*, exploring its mass-calculation based on observation and properties as supermassive black hole. Through this study, I find that Sgr A* can form from gravitational collapse of a massive cloud of gas and dust, properties and observations like accretion disk, gravitational influence, and gravitational waves it has as a supermassive black hole, and its mass can be calculated from star orbit. In summary, studying the properties of Sgr A* is crucial to understanding our galaxy, and the fundamental nature of the universe.References
