The Consistency of Fermi-LAT Observations of the Galactic Center with a Millisecond Pulsar Population in the Central Stellar Cluster

I show that the spectrum and morphology of a recent Fermi-LAT observation of the Galaxy center are consistent with a millisecond pulsar population in the nuclear Central stellar cluster of the Milky Way. The Galaxy Center gamma-ray spectrum is consistent with the spectrum of four of eight globular clusters that have been detected in the gamma-ray. A dark matter annihilation interpretation cannot be ruled out, though no unique features exist that would require this conclusion.
