ESA’s Integral observed space for 22 years, uncovering gamma-ray bursts, black holes, and gravitational waves.

The blast lasted for roughly three Earth days ... we can combine direct imaging of the near event horizon regions during gamma-ray flares from particle acceleration events and test theories ...

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), in partnership with NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC), has developed ...

China and France set off on a mighty explosion toward the universe when they launched the joint Sino-French SVOM mission. Their aim was to study Gamma-ray bursts that coincided with an event where ...

along with a gamma-ray burst from the very early universe. One of those detections was EP240408a, an unusual blast that lit up discussions between astronomers. Zhang and his colleagues immediately ...

"The gamma-ray burst traveled through intergalactic space at the speed of light for eleven billion years, during which time the Sun and the planets were born." — Timothy Ferris, in the film ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- An international team of astronomers has observed extremely rapid bursts of high-energy gamma rays from a distant galaxy, an observation that is challenging how astronomers ...

This could lead to ecosystem collapse and a potential mass extinction event. Gamma-ray bursts, caused by neutron star mergers, are even more dangerous than supernovas. Their concentrated energy ...

The world's highest Gamma-Ray Telescope, MACE, situated at Hanle in Ladakh has detected a 'blast from the past', well before the Earth and/or the Solar System were even born. Scientists from the ...

They had little encouraging advice to offer. The report did not deal with the damage by radiation (heat, gamma rays, etc.), considered only the blast, which affects a much larger area than the ...

Using 16 years of data from NASA's gamma-ray detecting Fermi spacecraft ... particle acceleration is the near-light-speed jets that blast out from microquasars. "Earth is constantly bombarded ...

For that, you need something like this gamma-ray spectroscope. Dubbed the Pomelo by [mihai.cuciuc], the detector is a homebrew solid-state scintillation counter made from a thallium-doped cesium ...
