Ionization cone

Ionization cone

Ionisation cones are cones of material extending out from spiral galaxies. They are visible because of their emissions which are believed to be from re-emission of photons produced by nuclear activity within the galaxy itself. [ [http://www.springerlink.com/content/j4276u12119nr290/ Paper by Wilson on the properties of such cones] ] [ [http://www.springerlink.com/content/j4276u12119nr290/ Paper proposing a model for Ionisation cone operation] ]

There is not yet a scientific consensus on the mechanics of such cones.
