The estimation of the cosmic ray background is crucial for ground-based gamma ray astronomy. For VHE gamma-rays (100 GeV-10 TeV), it is generally admitted that the ratio of the gamma Cherenkov radiation and the proton one's is about 3. However, this is only true on average and for fixed primary energies. The study of the electromagnetic component, taking into account the steepness of the primary spectrum, for fixed multiplicities (semi-inclusive reactions) and for diffractive collisions gives us more realistic clues on the cosmic background.
