Scientific paper

SgrA* is the ideal target to understand the accretion and outflow physics in the case of extremely low accretion rate onto a supermassive black hole. The discovery of flares from SgrA* has provided new exciting perspectives for understanding the processes at work in the Galactic nucleus. They are very likely to be produced within 10 Schwarzschild radii and hence probe the environment very close to the black hole. Recently, VLBI observations at 1.3mm demonstrate that angular resolution comparable to the apparent size of the event horizon is now technically possible. Therefore, we propose to perform simultaneous observations of SgrA* with XMM-Newton and 1.3mm VLBI to constrain the location of the high-energy flares from SgrA*.
