Scientific paper

A review is given of methods to constrain the mass of a putative black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. These approaches are based on: (1) tidal disruption of stars by a massive black hole; (2) displacement between Sgr A* and either of the IRS 16 components; (3) electron-positron pair production by a black hole, and (4) mass outflow centered on IRS 16/Sgr A* complex.
