      • 2012, L Iorio, Constraining the electric charges of some astronomical bodies in Reissner–Nordström spacetimes and generic r−2-type power-law potentials from orbital motions, According to the perinigricon precession of the main sequence S2 star in Sgr A*, the electric charge carried by the compact object hosted in the Galactic Center may be as large as
      • 2013, R de la Fuente Marcos & C de la Fuente Marcos, Colliding with G2 near the Galactic Centre: a geometrical approach, With this scenario in mind, it has recently been proposed by Bartos et al. that, prior to its perinigricon, G2 will likely experience multiple encounters with members of the black hole and neutron-star populations believed to orbit near the Galactic Centre.
