There is a gamma-ray lighthouse shining from the edge of our universe. Astronomers have discovered it using ESA’s orbiting gamma-ray observatory, Integral. Now, they must work hard to understand it.
Using NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Chinese astronomers have detected significant GeV gamma-ray emission from a supernova remnant (SNR) known as G272.2-3.2. The finding is detailed in a ...
For the first time a gamma-ray burst (GRB) has been observed simultaneously in the X-ray and in the very high energy gamma ray band. The MAGIC telescope at La Palma, Canary Islands, observed the ...
Integral’s latest survey of the gamma-ray universe continues to change the way astronomers think of the high-energy cosmos. With over seventy percent of the sky now observed by Integral, astronomers ...
Gamma-ray binaries represent one of the most dynamic and intriguing classes of high-energy astrophysical systems. These binaries typically consist of a massive star and a compact object – often a ...
The advent of new radio surveys as the VLA Sky Survey (VLASS) and Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS), realized with the latest generation radio telescopes, is opening new opportunities for the study ...
