Constraining the Diffusion Coefficient and Cosmic-Ray Acceleration Efficiency using Gamma-ray Emission from the Star-Forming Region RCW 38

Stellar winds from massive stars may be significant sources of cosmic rays (CRs). To investigate this connection, we report a detailed study of gamma-ray emission near the young Milky Way star cluster (\(\approx\) 0.5 Myr old) in the star-forming region RCW 38 and compare this emission to its stella...
