Full multiwavelength Sgr A* light curves on 2024 April 6. From bottom to top the green curve shows the average of the SMA upper (230 GHz) and lower (210 GHz) sidebands. The superposed yellow to red curves show the observed flux densities in JWST/MIRI Channels 1–4, respectively. The blue curve shows the Chandra 2–8 keV light curve (corrected for background and pileup) with 300 s binning, and the horizontal dark blue line shows the median of the entire Chandra observation. The purple curve shows the NuSTAR 3–30 keV light curve with 300 s binning. The dark purple overlay is the average during the observation period. Each light curve has its own ordinate as labeled, and times are UTC at the solar system barycenter. No X-ray flares were detected by either Chandra or NuSTAR. The gray region highlights the MIR flare interval seen by JWST.
