Scientific paper

It is argued that the annihilation of electrons and positrons at the Galactic center may result in observable infrared line emission by atomic hydrogen. A correlation between the intensity variations of the 511 keV line and the hydrogen infrared lines emitted by the annihilation region is predicted. The observed infrared fluxes from compact infrared sources at the Galactic center may be used to constrain theories of pair production there.
