Description
Using the Mopra Southern Galactic Plane Carbon Monoxide Survey dataset, comparisons between high resolution molecular gas and current HESS observations of Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray sources are presented. In particular, VHE gamma-ray sources in and near the Central Molecular Zone are focused on as case studies. Similar comparisons will be able to be made in the future when CTA provides higher resolution gamma-ray maps, with a greater sensitivity that is expected to detect more diffuse VHE gamma-ray emission. Multiwavelength analysis will be necessary to understand the origin of potentially extremely widespread emission.
