摘要：
The Orion cloud complex in the Milky Way is a source of gamma-rays attributable to cosmic-ray interactions with ambient thermal gas. Quantities upon which the gamma-ray flux depends can be scaled to the QSO 3C273. This result supports the hypothesis that at least some of the gamma-rays from this object and other QSOs may also be attributed to a similar pp-interaction scenario.
