Observational evidence for CR acceleration by such large scale electric fields is obscure since its characteristics haven't been explored extensively. The first results from the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) imply that although PeV particles may be accelerated in varieties of ultra-high-energy (UHE) <em>γ</em>-ray sources, they likely escape from their sites of acceleration effectively giving rise to UHE <em>γ</em>-ray spectra softer than that of the diffuse <em>γ</em>-rays from the galactic plane.
