After NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Swift Observatory spotted the BOAT, , an international team of astronomers ...

Astronomers have re-examined the biggest explosion ever seen, possibly the most massive explosion since the Big Bang, to ...

A University of Colorado Denver engineer is on the cusp of giving scientists a new tool that can help them turn sci-fi into ...

Astronomers have determined what caused the brightest cosmic explosion ever recorded. Lasting a matter of minutes, the gamma-ray burst, named GRB 221009A, was observed by astronomers in October ...

The University of Arizona’s astronomers, involved in the global collaboration that witnessed the brightest gamma-ray burst, GRB 221009A, in 55 years on Oct. 9, 2022, are now analyzing data from ...

The brightest gamma-ray burst ever seen may have been powered by a unique jet structure, scientists say. The discovery could shed new light on the origins of the universe.

The gamma-ray burst was so powerful that it showed up in the scientific data of spacecraft that aren’t even equipped with gamma-ray detectors, including orbiters at Mars and Voyager 1.

The three researchers collaborated on the discovery and analysis of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 221009A, which is in the constellation Sagitta and ranks as the brightest one ever observed.

ESA’s International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, INTEGRAL, will be the most sensitive gamma-ray observatory ever launched, able to detect radiation from the most distant violent events.

As these beams sweep across the Earth, the highly sensitive Fermi gamma-ray telescope can observe their periodic pulses of energy. With more than 15 years of data, Fermi has transformed the field ...

The gamma-ray emissions from the poles were particularly concentrated in June 2014, when the magnetic poles of the sun reversed, a phenomenon that happens every 11.5 years or so at the peak of ...

As far as he knows, there’s not another Gamma Ray Bar in the country. “That’s a cool word,” he thought to himself while reading about the discovery of large gamma rays in outer space.
