| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have observed the radial velocity of S2, which is one of S-stars, with Subaru telescope since 2014. As a result, we could have determined the radial velocity of S2 with high accuracy thanks to Subaru telescope. In addition, We have calculated the influence on the radial velocity of S2 due to dark masses around Sgr A*. We have found that 1 % dark masses of Sgr A*, that is the present upper limit, affect the radial velocity of S2 as at most 1000km/s when S2 goes through pericenter.
