Earth’s atmosphere acts as a shield, absorbing much of the radiation, but some gamma rays can penetrate the upper layers.

The University of Jyväskylä (Finland), in collaboration with the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK), has developed a new type of handheld multi-purpose radiation detector that ...

For the first time, scientists have caught lightning in the act of unleashing a powerful burst of gamma radiation known as a terrestrial gamma-ray flash (TGF). Researchers at the University of ...

After 30 days, the exposed memristors appeared to recover completely from the effects of radiation exposure and no longer required an elevated voltage for writing.

Joe Rogan has once again admitted his concern about the spate of unknown drones that have been appearing over the East Coast since November.

Elevated levels of gamma radiation have been detected at the Albany Bulb, a former landfill that has become a popular outdoor art attraction.

Thunderstorms are known to generate gamma rays, the highest energy radiation on Earth. But pinning the burst to a specific bolt is new.

This gamma radiation is so prevalent that pilots have even documented faint glows within storm clouds. Despite this, unknown factors appear to prevent them from creating explosive reactions.

Gamma radiation is produced as well, in bursts called terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs), which can last up to 100 microseconds, followed by longer afterglows.
