Diffuse X-rays from the Galactic center (GC) region were found to exhibit many K-shell lines from iron and nickel atoms in the 6--9 keV band. The strong emission lines seen in the spectrum are neutral iron K$alpha$ at 6.4~keV, He-like iron K$alpha$ at 6.7~keV, H-like iron Ly$alpha$ at 6.9~keV, and He-like iron K$beta$ at 7.8~keV. Among them, the 6.4~keV emission line is a probe of non-thermal phenomena. We have detected strong 6.4~keV emission in several giant molecular clouds, some of which were newly discovered by Suzaku. All the spectra exhibit large equivalent widths of 1-2~keV and absorption columns of $2-10times 10^{23}{rm H cm}^{-2}$. We found time variability of diffuse 6.4~keV emission in the Sgr B2 region comparing the maps and spectra obtained from 1994 to 2005 with ASCA, Chandra, XMM-Newton and Suzaku. We also report discovery of K$alpha$ lines of neutral argon, calcium, chrome, and manganese atoms in the Sgr~A region. We show that the equivalent width of the 6.4~keV emission line detected in X-ray faint region against the 6.4 keV-associated continuum (power-law component) is $sim 800 {rm eV}$. These features are naturally explained by the X-ray reflection nebula scenario rather than the low energy cosmic-ray electrons scenario. On the other hand, a 6.4~keV clump, G~0.162$-$0.217, discovered at the south end of the Radio Arc has a small equivalent width of 6.4~keV emission line of $sim200 {rm eV}$. The Radio Arc is a site of relativistic electrons. Thus, it is conceivable that the X-rays of G~0.162$-$0.217 are due to low energy cosmic-ray electrons
We present the first sub-arcminute images of the Galactic Center above 10 keV, obtained with NuSTAR. NuSTAR resolves the hard X-ray source IGR J17456-2901 into non-thermal X-ray filaments, molecular clouds, point sources and a previously unknown cent
The Galactic center region is the most active region in the Milky Way harboring a wealth of photon sources at all wavelengths. H.E.S.S. observations of the Galactic Center (GC) region revealed for the first time in very high energy (VHE, E> 100 GeV)
We present a catalog of hard X-ray sources in a square-degree region surveyed by NuSTAR in the direction of the Norma spiral arm. This survey has a total exposure time of 1.7 Ms, and typical and maximum exposure depths of 50 ks and 1 Ms, respectively
We report on the diffuse X-ray emissions from the Galactic center (GCDX) observed with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) on board the Suzaku satellite. The highly accurate energy calibrations and extremely low background of the XIS provide many ne
We present the results of a Suzaku study of a bright point-like source in the 6.7 keV intensity map of the Galactic center region. We detected an intense FeXXV 6.7 keV line with an equivalent width of ~1 keV as well as emission lines of highly ionize
