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

which stirs and energize the wreckage around it to briefly emit a tremendous burst of gamma rays. According to the hypernova model, the explosion and the spinning black hole will continue to ...

Another member of the team, John Finley, assistant professor of physics at Purdue, says the current models describing such gamma-ray flares predict that variations should occur, but on the scale of ...

Gamma rays originate from a variety of sources in both the Marvel Universe and the real world. Primary among non-fictional cosmic gamma-ray sources, are supernovas, neutron stars, and gamma-ray ...

As ground-based gamma-ray telescopes increase in complexity, managing their operations demands extensive coordination across ...

This site presents the energy and photon intensity of gamma rays as seen in thermal-neutron capture in two tables, one in ascending order of gamma energy and a second organized by Z, A of the target.

An unusual gamma-ray burst has challenged existing astrophysical models, leaving scientists searching for answers. This deep-space event defies expectations, hinting at new cosmic processes we may not ...

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

The thicker the substance, the more the radiation is absorbed. Alpha, beta and gamma radiations penetrate materials in different ways. Alpha radiation is the least penetrating. It can be stopped ...

Gamma waves come from the nucleus of a radioactive atom. They are electronegative waves. They do not change the nature of an atom. Thick lead or concrete will absorb gamma rays.
