      Because tidal energy deposition falls faster than the sixth power of the ratio of tidal radius to orbital radius, tidal effects near the perinigricon of S2 are expected to be negligible, consistent with its lack of infrared variability.

      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 |Q∙|≲4×1027 C.
    • 2013 June, R de la Fuente Marcos, C de la Fuente Marcos, “Colliding with G2 near the Galactic Centre: a geometrical approach”, in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society:
      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.
