Cosmic powerhouse: An artist’s view of the nuclear region of an active galaxy: a disk of accreting material (brown/yellow) spirals in onto the central supermassive black hole (black). A powerful, collimated radio jet (blue) is launched perpendicular to the disk. Inside the jet gamma-ray p...
The brightest gamma ray burst ever detected recently reached Earth. It’s 70 times longer than any other burst we’ve spotted.
2. Young supernova remnants as ideal proton accelerators viewed at gamma-ray energies 2.1. SN 1987A Located in the Large Magellanic Cloud at only 50 kpc from Earth, SN 1987A is the closest observed with modern telescopes. After evolving for nearly three decades, the radio flux has been stea...
Holder added that the small flashes of blue light caused when a gamma ray hits the atmosphere last only a few billionths of a second. The VERITAS cameras take 200 photographs a second. He and his team developed software that would sift out the gamma rays from all of the background noise...
That was an underwhelming performance... I was expecting a lot more out of you.Gamma 2 in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Gamma 2 (ガンマ2号, Ganma Ni-Gō, lit. "Gamma No. 2") is a Red Ribbon Army Android created by Dr. Hedo, along with Gamma 1. Despite h

(blue material in central panel). The equatorial and polar material crashes together at their intersection, producing shocks and gamma-ray emission (red regions in central panel). Finally, at later times, the nova stops blowing a wind, and the material drifts off into space, the fireworks ...
The Modular X- and Gamma-ray Sensor (MXGS) is an imaging and spectral X- and Gamma-ray instrument mounted on the starboard side of the Columbus module on t
A particularly important potential astrophysical signal is a monochromatic γ-ray line, with energy corresponding to the mass of the annihilating dark matter. The discovery of such a line would be a "smoking gun" signature of dark matter because no astrophysical backgrounds are known to generate a...
ray Space Telescope. Fermi also uses silicon-based detectors, but its sensors are comprised of silicon strips that are assembled in layers. These layers cross one another perpendicularly to create a grid that pinpoints the locations of high-energy particles created when a gamma ray hits a ...
