A cut-off in the TeV gamma-ray spectrum of the SNR Cassiopeia A

It is widely believed that the bulk of the Galactic cosmic rays are accelerated in supernova remnants (SNRs). However, no observational evidence of the presence of particles of PeV energies in SNRs has yet been found. The young historical…
