Suzaku perspective on the Galactic Center
The “40-keV Plasma” vs “10-keV Plasma” What is the Origin of the 6.7 keV-line Plasma ? Are the Galactic Center and Ridge emissions Same Origin ? Big bang of Sgr A* or Multi-SNe or ? (1) X-ray reflection Nebulae: Sgr B2, Sgr C, M (2) Supernovae and SNRs: Sgr A East, G359.8 G0.570 (3) Non Thermal Jets, Filaments, and Shell

What is our Galactic Center ? Who resembles the Milky Way ?
5 5 keV 6.64keV, EW=120eV Milky Way NGC253 NGC1068 6.4keV, EW=1200eV eV eV NGC253: Pietsch et al. 2001, M81:Page et al. 2004, M31: Takahashi et al. 2004, NGC1068: Matt et al. 2004

Key Questions on the iron line
ASCA Mapping with thw3-iron Lines Key Questions on the iron line Which line is clumpy ? Only 6.4 keV line (XRN) ? How about 6.7 and 6.9 keV lines ? Are these intensities and the line ratio uniform ? Any non-thermal structure ? Suzaku Mapping of 6.4, 6.7 and 6.9 keV line with a unit scale of ~5 arc-min.

Hard Diffuse Component
According to the latitudinal scanning observation of RXTE-PCA, the intensity of diffuse emission at the Galactic center can be estimated.
