"The Tornado" and "the Chimney" : Two Peculiar Diffuse X-ray Objects with Outflowing Structures in the Galactic Center Region
Year: 2010
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: From the Suzaku observation of the Galactic center region, we successfully detected two peculiar objects, the Tornado and the Chimney, with spatially outflowing structures. Both of the objects have the spectra described by a thin-thermal plasma model with the temperature and thermal energy consistent with an SNR. However, their outflowing structures are very unusual as a galactic SNR. The mechanism forming the structures is mystery, although it would be related with the high energy activities of the Galactic center region.
