Is Sagittarius A* the only black hole in the Milky Way?
While Sagittarius A* is the supermassive black hole at our galaxy's center, it is not the only black hole. We know from theory and observations that stellar-mass black holes, formed from the collapse of individual massive stars, are also abundant throughout the Milky Way. My work specifically focuses on the unique environment and the dynamics of the supermassive black hole, but it's important to remember the broader population of black holes.
