Parameters of radio sources near Sgr A*

We report 44 partially resolved compact sources clustered in two regions in the E arm of ionized gas that orbits Sgr A*. These sources have size scales ranging between ~50 and 200 mas (400-1600 AUs), and a bow-shock appearance facing the direction of Sgr A*.

Unlike the bow-shock sources previously identified in the near-IR but associated with massive stars, these 34 GHz sources do not appear to have near-IR counterparts at 3.8 {mu}m. We interpret these sources as a candidate population of photoevaporative protoplanetary disks (proplyds) that are associated with newly formed low mass stars with mass loss rates ~10^-7^-10^-6^ M_{sun}_/yr and are located at the edge of a molecular cloud outlined by ionized gas.
