Brave New World is about to hit cinemas, bringing with it the gamma-ray-powered Red Hulk. Here's what you need to know about ...

For the first time, we can combine direct imaging of the near event horizon regions during gamma-ray flares from particle acceleration events and test theories about the flare origins," says Sera ...

along with three of the world’s largest imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope arrays: VERITAS, H.E.S.S., and MAGIC. These facilities can detect X-ray photons as well as high-energy gamma rays ...

"The gamma-ray burst traveled through intergalactic space at the speed of light for eleven billion years, during which time the Sun and the planets were born." — Timothy Ferris, in the film ...

Cosmic rays below 100 MeV are key to the origin of life and the evolution of stars, and they activate interstellar matter to emit spectral emission lines of X-rays and gamma rays specific to the ...

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 ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- An international team of astronomers has observed extremely rapid bursts of high-energy gamma rays from a distant galaxy, an observation that is challenging how astronomers ...

For that, you need something like this gamma-ray spectroscope. Dubbed the Pomelo by [mihai.cuciuc], the detector is a homebrew solid-state scintillation counter made from a thallium-doped cesium ...

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.

For research and evaluations requiring fast neutrons fluences with minimal slow neutrons and gamma ray components, a range-thick ... translated across the face of the imaging detector, and raised or ...

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 ...
