AI model suggests Galactic Center Excess is diffuse or has vast point sources

A new arXiv paper explores the Galactic Center Excess (GCE) using a Bayesian graph convolutional neural network approach. This method integrates spatial and spectral data, revealing that the GCE is either diffuse or composed of an exceptionally large number of point sources. The findings suggest the excess is consistent with Poisson emission predicted by dark matter, potentially requiring over 35,000 sources if attributed to point sources, a significantly higher number than previously estimated.
