Astronomers have employed the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) to observe a mysterious gamma-ray emitting source designated HESS J1857+026. Results of the ...

A new study published on the pre-print server arXiv is shedding fresh light on one of the galaxy’s strangest high-energy ...

Data collected using multiple NSF NOIRLab facilities reveal a gamma-ray burst that lasted more than seven hours and originated in a massive, extremely dust-rich galaxy. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) rank ...

This unique gamma-ray source will generate a beam of gamma rays like those that existed in the first minutes of our universe after the Big Bang. The high-flux, monochromatic and energy-tunable gamma ...

Prof. An Tao from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has proposed a novel "precessing magnetic jet engine" model to explain the peculiar gamma-ray burst ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - Gamma-ray bursts are a relatively new discovery in space science. The first burst was discovered in the late 1960s. You might be wondering ...

The Cherenkov Telescope Array just got a major boost for distributing its data, a development that will expedite scientific discovery using the observatory. Reading time 2 minutes The European ...

Gamma-ray spectroscopy is a pivotal technique in nuclear science, industry and astrophysics, enabling the precise determination of gamma-ray energies emitted from radioactive sources. Recent advances ...

LHAASO has uncovered that micro-quasars, black holes feeding on companion stars, are powerful PeV particle accelerators. Their jets produce ultra-high-energy gamma rays and protons that exceed ...

Blazars are the brightest of active galactic nuclei, and many emit very high-energy gamma rays. New observations of the blazar known as PKS 1424+240 show that it is the most distant known source of ...

RI Research Instruments, a company that is majority-owned by Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR), today announced orders for key components and enabling subsystems for the research gamma ray source of ...
