China’s Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), a major scientific infrastructure, has released groundbreaking results from its "Mini Survey of the Milky Way" program. With unprecedented ...
A nearby supernova in 2023 offered astrophysicists an excellent opportunity to test ideas about how these types of explosions boost particles, called cosmic rays, to near light-speed. But surprisingly ...
A project to make a ground-based map of gamma radiation within the city of Sydney, has found normal background levels.
A flash of lightning. A roll of thunder. These are normal stormy sights and sounds. But sometimes, up above the clouds, stranger things happen. Our Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has spotted bursts ...
A new map offers a new perspective on the city, revealing the steady, ever-present natural radiation emerging from the ground ...
The researchers used the European Space Agency’s INTEGRAL spacecraft to record gamma-ray light, which is high-energy radiation undetectable from Earth’s surface. They collected the particular ...
