Scientists may be a step closer to discovering how gamma-ray bursts come to be some of the most powerful explosions in the ...
In October 2022, an international team of researchers, including Northwestern University astrophysicists, observed the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever recorded, GRB 221009A. Now, a ...
Swift is a multiwavelength space telescope that scientists are using to find out more about these mysterious gamma-ray ...
In 2022, astronomers discovered the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) of all time. Now, astronomers confirm that a 'normal' supernova, the telltale sign of a stellar collapse, accompanied the GRB.
In a unique cosmic event, scientists have detected a burst of gamma rays originating from a rare magnetar in the nearby ...
April 12 (UPI) --Scientists at Northwestern University said Friday they had confirmed that the cause of the brightest gamma-ray burst ever observed in October 2022 was the destruction of a star ...
Astronomers have determined what caused the brightest cosmic explosion ever recorded. Lasting a matter of minutes, the gamma-ray burst, named GRB 221009A, was observed by astronomers in October 2022.
Astronomers just caught a dead star in a distant galaxy throwing a massive temper tantrum.
SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Approximately a year and a half ago, a massive star collapsed and exploded 2 billion light-years away from Earth creating the brightest gamma-ray burst ever recorded, according ...
