In the universe there is a terrible light that can penetrate all matter and destroy all life, this light was discovered by French physicist Paul Villard.
Gamma rays emanate from cosmic explosions that collide with the Moon, causing Earth's natural satellites to become gamma-contaminated and produce radiation.
This phenomenon was discovered using data from NASA's Fermi Space Telescope and High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS).
Gamma rays (denoted by γ) are a kind of extremely high frequency electromagnetic or photonic radiation.
American scientists first discovered the strong release of gamma-ray radiation accompanied by radio waves in very short time.
At the same time the gravitational wave was discovered in September 2015, the Fermi telescope also caught a short signal emitted from the vicinity.
A type of quasar called blazar is still a great mystery for scientists because of their difficult-to-explain light-emitting mechanism.
International scientists detect ultra-high-energy gamma rays coming from a galaxy 7.6 billion light years from Earth.
A Hungarian-American research group has discovered a giant mysterious circle that is the result of gamma-ray bursts. It is the largest in the universe and 5 billion ligh…
The Fermi Space Telescope of NASA has discovered a strange stream of gamma rays in the universe. Scientists think they could help reveal many mysteries about antimatter,…
In 2012, researchers found evidence that our planet was caught by a mysterious radiation burst in the Middle Ages, but at that time experts did not agree on the cause. a…
Two giant bubbles spew out gamma beams that appear in the center of the Milky Way and astronomers don't know where they were born.
Using a combination of telescopes around the globe, scientists have discovered huge energetic gamma rays coming from an area close to the supermassive black hole.
In two studies published in Science Express on July 2, the international team analyzed gamma rays from more than two dozen pulses, including 16 crystals discovered by th…
International astronomers have just taken the most distant object image ever seen in the universe - 13 billion light-years from Earth.
