High-energy gamma-ray photons are relatively scarce, and it takes many photons to create a meaningful image of an object in space. For this reason, there are not many images of astronomical ...

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

integrating technology he previously developed for the VERITAS (Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System) experimental observatory and for the new ultra-high resolution gamma ray ...

"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 ...

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

“Peat soils have a unique ability to block this type of naturally occurring radiation, drastically reducing the number of ...

This illustration shows the ingredients of a long gamma-ray burst, the most common type. The core of a massive star (left) has collapsed, forming a black hole that sends a jet of particles moving ...

Yet, though our image of a black hole is one of an all-consuming ... These jets are accompanied by bursts of electromagnetic radiation like the gamma-ray flare that the EHT witnessed.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have emerged as promising drug carriers for cancer therapy and targeted drug delivery but tracking ...
