Description
In this contribution, a search for neutrino emission from the Central
Molecular Zone (CMZ) and the Cygnus Cocoon is presented exploiting
KM3NeT/ARCA capabilities. The CMZ extends for a few hundred par-
secs around the Galactic center, containing the massive molecular clouds
Sgr A, Sgr B, and Sgr C. The Cygnus Cocoon is a massive star-forming
region of a few hundred parsecs in the constellation of Cygnus. It con-
tains regions with high gas densities and a rich stellar population. The
high energy emission from these regions is expected to be dominated by
the interactions of cosmic-rays with the molecular gas, which translate
into gamma-ray and neutrinos production. Here we present a search for
neutrino emission from these two regions. We explored the sensitivities of
the current KM3NeT/ARCA geometry as well as the case of the complete
future detector.
