Description
Summary:[Context] The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory has reported the detection of cosmic-ray sources in the Milky Way that can accelerate particles up to PeV (=1015 eV) energies. These sources, so-called “PeVatrons”, are mostly unidentified. Several classes of sources, such as supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebula, or young stellar clusters can potentially be the counterparts of these PeVatrons.
