Abstract

Description

In X-rays, the Galactic Centre (GC) Region appears as a complex of diffuse thermal and non-thermal X-ray emission intermixed with a population of luminous discrete sources. Here we present some new findings from the XMM-Newton GC survey, focusing particularly on Sgr A*, Sgr A East, the Radio Arc region, and a newly discovered X-ray non-thermal filament.
