This is the first time an object in its class has been detected in X-rays. The discovery could lead to a better understanding ...

Scientists believe the gamma-ray emission, ... In a new study that appears today in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, observations of GRB 221009A spanning from radio waves to gamma-rays, ...

For instance, radio wave data revealed that GRB 221009A was 70 times brighter than any previously observed gamma-ray burst, so it is indeed the BOAT (thus far)—likely a one-in-10,000-year event.

This has prevented directly observing the source, but radio waves associated with the burst have penetrated and could remain visible as an afterglow for decades to come. Gamma-ray brightness of ...

Electromagnetic waves emerge from the invisible currents flowing through the dynamic fabric of space-time, woven tightly between galaxies, stars, and dark matter. This visual journey reveals how ...

Gamma rays can only be detected by sensors made of dense metals and takes over six feet (1.8 meters) of concrete to block.

This stunning Hubble view of spiral galaxy UGC 11397 captures more than graceful arms and glowing stars—it hides a ravenous ...

Loaded up with sensors to detect gamma rays, radio waves, visible light and more, the aircraft flew over storms in the Caribbean and Central America.
