To determine the nature of the PeVatron's emission (hadronic or leptonic), it is essential to characterize the physical parameters of the environment from where it originates. We unambiguously confirm the association of molecular gas with…

Using data from the HEGRA air shower array, taken in the period from April 1998 to March 2000, upper limits on the ratio I_gamma /I_CR of the diffuse photon flux I_gamma to the hadronic cosmic ray flux I_CR are determined for the energy…
