| Abstract [eng] |
We assume a large-scale feature of the Galactic background, the North Polar Spur (NPS), being a jet of the Milky Way galaxy. The suggested interpretation explains the visible circular structure of NPS. The jet may be enveloped by an extended cocoon of a jet-long diameter. The hypothesis is supported by analysis of the physical parameters of NPS. |
