Bipolar Galactic wind Bland-Hawthorn,2002
In accord with the stellar record in the Galactic Center, we infer that a powerful nuclear starburst has taken place within the last several million years We infer that the Galactic Center is driving large-scale winds into the halo every ∼ 10 − 15 Myr or so.

Echoes of the Last Quasar Outburst Zubovas,2011
Here we propose an alternative picture where the bubbles are the remnants of a large–scale wide–angle outflow from the SMBH of our Galaxy. the well known star formation event in the inner 0.5pc of the Milky Way 6 Myr ago.
11
We estimate that an accreted mass 2 × 10^3M⊙ is needed for the accretion event to power the observed Fermi–LAT lobes. This estimate suggests that roughly 50% of the gas was turned into stars, while the rest accreted onto Sgr A∗
12
AGN Jet Guo,2011 we show that the bubbles can be created with a recent AGN jet activity about Myr ago, which was active for a duration of ∼ Myr Roles of viscosity and cosmic ray diffusion
13
Giant, Multi-Billion-Year-Old Reservoirs of Galactic Center Cosmic Rays
Crocker,2011 Here we show that the bubbles are naturally explained as due to a population of relic cosmic ray protons and heavier ions injected by processes associated with extremely long timescale (> 8 Gyr) and high areal density star-formation in the Galactic center.
