A scientific team led by Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, or FRIB, has identified the origin of a mysterious excess of ...
A team of researchers has successfully demonstrated nonlinear Compton scattering (NCS) between an ultra-relativistic electron beam and an ultrahigh intensity laser pulse using the 4-Petawatt laser.
Today, the European Space Agency's gamma-ray telescope ends its observations. During its 22 years in space, Integral has reshaped our view of the most dramatic events in the universe. The high-energy ...
Light curve of the gamma-ray flare (bottom) and collection of quasi-simulated images of the M87 jet (top) at various scales obtained in radio and X-ray during the 2018 campaign. The instrument, the ...
The LHAASO observatory has detected gamma rays above 100 TeV from a gamma-ray binary for the first time, challenging current models of cosmic particle acceleration. (Nanowerk News) The Large High ...
A stellar explosion that briefly outshone its entire host galaxy may have left behind a calling card no superluminous supernova has ever produced before: a burst of high-energy gamma rays detected by ...
Astronomers are trying to understand what caused a series of gamma ray bursts, or GRBs — the most powerful explosions in the universe. These energetic bursts are typically unleashed by the incendiary ...
Above the cloud tops, thunderstorms throb with a complex, frenetic light show of high-energy radiation. A view from a retrofitted spy plane soaring at 20 kilometers up revealed storms glowing and ...
On Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022, a pulse of intense radiation swept through the solar system so exceptional that astronomers quickly dubbed it the BOAT – the brightest of all time. The source was a gamma-ray ...
