When researchers know the precise location of a given gamma-ray burst, according to the statement, they can compare their data with other satellites and even local weather stations to paint a better picture of the forces that coalesce to create the fleeting flash of energy....
It is shown, that localization of the cosmic gamma-ray burst sources (GBS) is determined by the clusters of GRBs. About 100 candidates in sources are presented in the form of the catalog, which is compiled relying on the base of the BATSE data up to middle of 2000. Gamma-ray bursts ...
The NASA-led Swift mission has detected and imaged its first gamma-ray burst, likely the birth cry of a brand new black hole. The scientific payload includes stereo imaging equipment, a laser altimeter, a magnetometers, and an X-ray Spectrometer. In many cases, a fetus will be imaged mult...
A search for possible optical counterparts of gamma-ray burst sources on archival patrol plates revealed an optical outburst image inside the error box of GBS 0008 + 13. This outburst image appears on three simultaneously exposed plates. Unfortunately, a satellite glint or a head-on meteor cannot...
Evidence that Gamma-ray Burst 130702A Exploded in a Dwarf Satellite of a Massive Galaxy GRB 130702A is a nearby long-duration gamma-ray burst (LGRB) discovered by the Fermi satellite whose associated afterglow was detected by the Palomar Trans... PL Kelly,AV Filippenko,OD Fox,... - 《As...
The optical afterglow of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 000301C exhibited a sig- nificant, short-timescale deviation from the power-law flux decline expected in the standard synchrotron shock model. Garnavich, Loeb & Stanek found that this deviation was well-fit by an ad hoc model in which ...
This serpentine swirl, captured by the VISIR instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), has an explosive future ahead of it; it is a Wolf-Rayet star system, and a likely source of one of the most energetic phenomena in the Universe — a long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB). ...
“For future gravitational wave events from LIGO and Virgo, we’ll be given a very large region of the sky to search. Neutrino events and gamma-ray bursts are also not well localized. The ZTF survey will allow us to connect the optical universe to all three of these extreme phenomena.”...
Image of a solar flare.New Jersey Institute of Technology The research has revealed that flares share processes with other astronomical phenomena likegamma-ray bursts, and are similar to processes seen in research into the generation of fusion energy. As the EOVSA instrument is able to capture i...
This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows a dwarf galaxy named UGC 685. Such galaxies are small and contain just a tiny fraction of the number of stars in a galaxy like the Milky Way. Dwarf galaxies often show a hazy structure, an ill-def
