Checking the dark matter origin of 3.53 keV line with the Milky Way   center
  We detect a line at 3.539 +/- 0.011 keV in the deep exposure dataset of the Galactic Center region, observed with the XMM-Newton. The dark matter interpretation of the signal observed in the Perseus galaxy cluster, the Andromeda galaxy [1402.4119] and in the stacked spectra of galaxy clusters [1402.2301], together with non-observation of the line in blank sky data, put both lower and upper limits on the possible intensity of the line in the Galactic Center data. Our result is consistent with these constraints for a class of Milky Way mass models, presented previously by observers, and would correspond to radiative decay dark matter lifetime tau_dm ~ (6-8) x 10^{27} sec. Although it is hard to exclude an astrophysical origin of this line based the Galactic Center data alone, this is an important consistency check of the hypothesis that encourages to check it with more observational data that are expected by the end of 2015.
