3. = The ALMA telescope measures sub-mm flares from the supermassive black hole Sgr A* at two frequencies. These show specific luminosities L1 4 x 1032 erg s-1 Hz-1 at vi = 100 GHz, and L2 = 8 8 x 1031 erg s-1 Hz-1 at 500 GHz, respectively. -1 V2 = Compute: (a) the power-law spectral index s of flares; [ 1.5] (b) the total sub-mm luminosity between the two stated frequencies, in erg s-1. [ 1.5]
