It's the most energetic light source in the Universe against a massive gravitational monster. Could this cosmic showdown ...

This gamma-ray burst has come from two billion light-years away, which means it occurred two billion years ago. Published today in the journal Nature Communications, a new paper reveals that on ...

"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 ...

it recently observed a gamma-ray burst at a z value of 4.859. Matsumoto said if one of the potential reasons for the JWST excess "is that stars are formed more efficiently in these galaxies ...

China's Einstein Probe, an X-ray telescope in Earth orbit, has already made several discoveries during its initial ...

The gamma-ray burst (GRB) occurred two billion light-years from Earth and illuminated much of the galaxy. Images of the rare and powerful cosmic phenomenon show a halo and "bullseye" like shapes.

The gamma ray burst lasted seven minutes and was so powerful that it was off the scale, overwhelming the instruments that detected them. Subsequent readings showed that the burst was 100 times ...

Recent radio observations reveal a new mode of initial lightning development in the form of continuous initial breakdown burst of several kilometers in length at high altitudes within thunderstorms.

The event, a gamma-ray burst, was detected by a space telescope and a NASA observatory. A team of scientists including University of Leicester physicists described the minute-long blast as a rare ...

Gamma ray bursts are the brightest light sources in ... which means that a single galaxy should see one burst every one-hundred thousand to one million years, which is rare even by cosmic standards.
