Magnetar-SgrA* Neighbor to SgrA* Magnetar (Soft Gamma Repeater, SGR) A 2.4" projected distance translates in a minimum physical separation d = 0.09+/-0.02 pc (90% CL) for D=8.3 kpc 2.4" CHANDAR picture http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2015/sgr1745/
Magnetar J1745-2900 vs. EAVN VLA, 7mm 2.4" A 2.4" separation means magnetar-SgrA* shares the in/same beam even for Tianma65 in Q band (22"). Share similar physical conditions with SgrA* Kravchenko et al. MNRAS, 2016 Share LP monitoring of SgrA* High frequency astrometry
Magnetar J1745-2900 vs. EAVN High frequency (K/Q): Invert spectrum, reduce the scattering effect Share the same observation with SgrA*, increase the target source but no additional observation time Feed back to SgrA* data analysis RMS (image of SgrA): 0.3 mJy@K, 1 mJy@Q

Summary 1. Magnetar(J1745-2900) seems could be detected by EAVN in the Q band, K band data under check. 2. A good model of SgrA* is important to subtract its contamination to the beam, testing the model? 3. Data processing in other epochs are still ongoing. 4. Dig the GC area beginning with Magnetar. Thank you !
