"These efforts promise to shed light on the disk-jet connection and uncover the origins and mechanisms behind the gamma-ray photon emission." The relativistic jet examined by the researchers is ...

This site presents the energy and photon intensity of gamma rays as seen in thermal-neutron capture in two tables, one in ascending order of gamma energy and a second organized by Z, A of the target.

when its daily-averaged gamma-ray flux increased by a factor of 177 relative to the average flux, while its photon index decreased from the average value of 2.57 to 2.11. These findings represent ...

The highly energetic explosion was initially attributed to a burst of gamma rays emitted either by the collision of two neutron stars or from the death of a massive star. Soon, however ...

Jamie Carter is an award-winning reporter who covers the night sky. A massive burst of gamma rays produced by the explosion of a star almost two billion light-years away was so powerful that it ...

f is the frequency of the photon, and h is Planck's constant. A single gamma ray photon, for example, might carry ~100,000 times the energy of a single photon of visible light. The effects of EMR upon ...

On March 15, 2024, a space-based observatory detected bursts of low-energy X-rays from deep in the ancient universe, ...

Here's a tour that begins with radio waves and takes you through microwaves, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, and X-rays. The tour ends with gamma rays, the potentially deadly ...

Building on Eugen Sänger’s ideas, scientists are developing photon propulsion by annihilating matter and antimatter, creating gamma ray avalanches to power spacecraft into the cosmos.

The ability to measure gamma rays emitted during BNCT highlights the ... and correction techniques that enhance the accuracy of photon detection, making it suitable for applications where precise ...

against air kerma or absorbed dose to water standards at cobalt-60 gamma ray energies. The use of these chambers to calibrate therapy electron beams, as well as relative dose measurements for photon ...
