By using mathematical equations that relate the duration of the flare to the size of the region emitting the bursts, Gaidos says the rapidity of the second flare suggests that the region emitting the ...

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), in partnership with NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC), has developed ...

It does this by emitting a high energy electromagnetic wave called a gamma ray. Gamma radiation does not consist of particles but as short wavelength, high energy electromagnetic radiation emitted ...

A new study explains how thunderstorm electric fields produce strong gamma‐ray glows with oscillating gamma‐ray rates, and that these oscillations develop into intense pulse trains that closely ...

PGAA is particularly valuable as a non-destructive nuclear method in the measurement of elements that do not form neutron capture products with delayed gamma-ray emissions. Inaccurate and incomplete ...
