HESS J1626-490 is one of a growing number of unidentified TeV gamma-ray sources without an obvious classical high-energy counterpart such as a supernova remnant, a pulsar-powered nebula or X-ray binary. CO(1-0), HI and 12mm survey (HOPS) observations reveal interesting overlapping molecular and atomic gas features which may be related to high mass star formation and possibly a nearby supernova remnant SNR G335.2+0.1. This project will investigate in much more detail the dense gas towards the molecular gas, TeV emission and SNR. We will use the CS(1-0) SiO(1-0) and NH3 transitions to probe for shocks and/or disruption that will give further clues as to the physical association of the molecular gas and high-mass star formation processes to the gamma-ray emission.
