The spectrum is well described by an exponential cut-off power law with photon index Gamma=2.11 +/- 0.09_stat +/- 0.10_sys, and a cut-off energy of E_c = (6.0 +2.0 -1.2) TeV. The TeV emission is significantly extended and overlaps with the north-western part of the shell of the SNR G338.3-0.0. The new H.E.S.S. results, a re-analysis of archival XMM-Newton data, and multi-wavelength observations suggest that a significant part of the gamma-ray emission from HESS J1640-465 originates in the SNR shell. In a hadronic scenario, as suggested by the smooth connection of the GeV and TeV spectra, the product of total proton energy and mean target density could be as high as W_p n_H ~ 4 x 10^52 (d/10kpc)^2 erg cm^-3. %G English %Z HESS %2 https://hal.in2p3.fr/in2p3-00947889/document %2 https://hal.in2p3.fr/in2p3-00947889/file/1401.4388.pdf %L in2p3-00947889 %U https://hal.in2p3.fr/in2p3-00947889 %~ IN2P3 %~ OBSPM %~ CEA %~ INSU %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ X %~ UNIV-SAVOIE %~ UPMC %~ UGA %~ CENBG %~ LAPP %~ LLR %~ LPNHE %~ APC %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-MONTP2 %~ LIAMA %~ LUTH %~ X-LLR %~ X-DEP %~ X-DEP-PHYS %~ LUPM %~ FRANCE-GRILLES %~ DSM-IRFU %~ IRFU-APC %~ PSL %~ UPMC_POLE_2 %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ CEA-DRF %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ LUPM_EMA %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ UP-SCIENCES %~ OBSPM-PSL %~ USMB-COMUE %~ SU-TI %~ ALLIANCE-SU %~ UM1-UM2 %~ LPNHE-2
