Tibet AS-gamma collaboration has recently reported detection of gamma-rays with energies up to Peta-electronvolt from parts of the Galactic plane. We notice that the analysis of gamma-ray flux by the Tibet AS-gamma experiment also implies an upper bound on the diffuse gamma-ray flux from high Galactic latitudes(|b|>20 degrees) in the energy range between 100 TeV and 1 PeV. This bound is up to an order-of-magnitude stronger than previously derived bounds from GRAPES3, KASCADE and CASA-MIA experiments. We discuss the new TibetAS-gamma limit on high Galactic latitude gamma-ray flux in the context of possible mechanisms of multi-messenger (gamma-ray and neutrino) emission from nearby cosmic ray sources, dark matter decays and large scale cosmic ray halo of the Milky Way.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Tibet ASγ and LHAASO-KM2A diffuse gamma-ray data exclude decaying dark matter lifetimes below about 10^28 seconds for masses around 10^6-10^9 GeV, for many Standard Model final states.
