Gamma-ray maps within the region of interest (|l|≤60∘, 10∘≤|b|≤60∘) are modeled using point sources, the GALPROP models of cosmic-ray interactions, isotropic background, and templates of Loop I and the Fermi bubbles, and then the presence of a halo-like component is further…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2507.07209/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

A dark, or perhaps, nocturnal, emission if you will, which can be detected. https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.07209&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2507.07209/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
