We analyze a pair of Suzaku shadowing observations in order to determine the X-ray spectrum of the Galaxys gaseous halo. We simultaneously fit the spectra with models having halo, local, and extragalactic components. The intrinsic intensities of the halo OVII triplet and OVIII Lyman alpha emission lines are 9.98^{+1.10}_{-1.99} LU (line unit; photons cm^-2 s^-1 Sr^-1) and 2.66^{+0.37}_{-0.30} LU, respectively. Meanwhile, FUSE OVI observations for the same directions and SPEAR CIV observations for a nearby direction indicate the existence of hot halo gas at temperatures of ~10^{5.0} K to ~10^{6.0} K. This collection of data implies that the hot gas in the Galactic halo is not isothermal, but its temperature spans a relatively wide range from ~10^{5.0} K to ~10^{7.0} K. We therefore construct a differential emission measure (DEM) model for the halos hot gas, consisting of two components. In each, dEM/dlog T is assumed to follow a power-law function of the temperature and the gas is assumed to be in collisional ionizational equilibrium. The low-temperature component (LTC) of the broken power-law DEM model covers the temperature range of 10^{4.80}-10^{6.02} K with a slope of 0.30 and the high-temperature component (HTC) covers the temperature range of 10^{6.02}-10^{7.02} K with a slope of -2.21. We find that a simple model in which hot gas accretes onto the Galactic halo and cools radiatively cannot explain both the observed UV and X-ray portions of our broken power-law model. It can, however, explain the intensity in the Suzaku bandpass if the mass infall rate is 1.35*10^{-3} Msun yr^-1 kpc^-2. The UV and X-ray intensities and our broken power-law model can be well explained by hot gas produced by supernova explosions or by supernova remnants supplemented by a smooth source of X-rays.
We analyse new results of Chandra and Suzaku which found a flux of hard X-ray emission from the compact region around Sgr A$^ast$ (r ~ 100 pc). We suppose that this emission is generated by accretion processes onto the central supermassive blackhole
The origin of the Galactic center diffuse X-ray emission (GCDX) is still under intense investigation. We have found a clear excess in a longitudinal GCDX profile over a stellar number density profile in the nuclear bulge region, suggesting a signific
We present measurements of the Galactic halos X-ray emission for 110 XMM-Newton sight lines, selected to minimize contamination from solar wind charge exchange emission. We detect emission from few million degree gas on ~4/5 of our sight lines. The t
An unresolved X-ray glow (at energies above a few kiloelectronvolts) was discovered about 25 years ago and found to be coincident with the Galactic disk -the Galactic ridge X-ray emission. This emission has a spectrum characteristic of a 1e8 K optica
This paper reports measurements of Sgr A* made with NACO in L -band (3.80 um), Ks-band (2.12 um) and H-band (1.66 um) and with VISIR in N-band (11.88 um) at the ESO VLT, as well as with XMM-Newton at X-ray (2-10 keV) wavelengths. On 4 April, 2007, a
