Analysis of the Fermi-LAT data has revealed two extended structures above and below the Galactic Centre emitting gamma rays with a hard spectrum, the so-called Fermi bubbles. Hadronic models attempting to explain the origin of the Fermi bubbles predict the emission of high-energy neutrinos and gamma rays with similar fluxes. The ANTARES detector, a neutrino telescope located in the Mediterranean Sea, has a good visibility to the Fermi bubble regions. Using data collected from 2008 to 2011 no…

It is shown that the bubbles of emission centered on the core of the Galaxy and extending to around ± 10 kpc from the Galactic plane are naturally explained as due to a population of relic cosmic ray protons and heavier ions injected by processes associated with extremely long time scale and high areal density star formation in the Galactic center.
