Roman’s deep, time-lapse survey may reveal a hundred thousand stellar cataclysms, from distant Type Ia supernovae to the self ...

Watch an animation of a black hole shooting jets of particles through a "collapsing star at nearly the speed of light" and emit "x-rays and gamma rays (magenta)," according to NASA's Goddard Space ...

Researchers will mine data from NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which will survey the same areas of the sky every ...

The brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever recorded, resulting from the collapse and subsequent explosion of a massive star, was first detected by space observatories in October 2022. Now, an ...

This releases all the energy of the hypernova or neutron star merger in the form of gamma rays in two tightly focused jets aligned with the pole of rotation of the accretion disk.

In particular, this burst is so bright (too many gamma-ray photons in a short period of time) that the Fermi/GBM detector suffered data loss during the bright part of the burst, making reliable ...

The gamma-ray burst (GRB) known as the Brightest Of All Time (BOAT) had an emission line in its afterglow, the first time one has been detected with confidence in any GRB. The astronomers who ...

Related: The brightest of all-time gamma-ray burst on record — nicknamed the BOAT but officially named GRB 221009A — was detected Oct. 9, 2022.

In October 2022, astronomers were stunned by what was quickly dubbed the BOAT - the brightest-of-all-time gamma-ray burst. Now an international science team reports that data from the Fermi Gamma-ray ...

The brightest-of-all-time gamma ray burst, which was quickly dubbed the BOAT, was discovered by NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope in October 2022 and was heralded and heavily studied by ...

Northwestern University scientists said Friday they had confirmed that the cause of the brightest gamma-ray burst ever observed in October 2022 was an exploding star, known as a supernova, 2.4 ...
