要旨:
We report a correspondence between giant, polarized microwave structures
emerging north from the Galactic plane near the Galactic center and a number of
GeV gamma-ray features, including the eastern edge of the recently-discovered
northern Fermi Bubble. The polarized microwave features also correspond to
structures seen in the all-sky 408 MHz total intensity data, including the
Galactic center spur. The magnetic field structure revealed by the polarization
data at 23 GHz suggests that neither the emission coincident with the Bubble
edge nor the Galactic center spur are likely to be features of the local ISM.
On the basis of the observed morphological correspondences, similar inferred
spectra, and the similar energetics of all sources, we suggest a direct
connection between the Galactic center spur and the northern Fermi Bubble.
