Ionization cone

Topic: Astronomy

 From HandWiki - Reading time: 1 min

Ionization 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.[1][2] There is not yet a scientific consensus on the mechanics of such cones.
