Scientific paper

We report on the diffuse X-ray emission from the Galactic Centre (GCDX) observed with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) on board the Suzaku satellite. The highly accurate energy calibration and extremely low background of the XIS provide many new facts on the GCDX. These are (1) the origin of the lines at 6.7 and 7.0 keV is collisional excitation in a hot plasma, (2) the discovery of new SNR and super-bubble candidates, (3) most of the 6.4 keV line is X-ray fluorescence, and (4) time variability of the 6.4 keV line is found from the Sgr B2 complex.
