The origin of sub-TeV gamma rays detected by the \textit{Fermi}-Large Area Telescope (LAT) from the \textit{Fermi} Bubbles (FBs) at the Galactic center is still uncertain. In a hadronic model, acceleration of protons and/or nuclei and their…

Recent evidence for one or more gamma-ray lines at ~ 130 GeV in the Fermi-LAT data from the Galactic Center has been interpreted as a hint for dark matter annihilation to Z{\gamma} or H{\gamma} with an annihilation cross section, <\sigma v>…
