The very moment two electrical currents slam together to form a lightning bolt has been captured, revealing for the first ...

For that, you need something like this gamma-ray spectroscope ... showing different spectra for each. [mihai.cuciuc] took inspiration for the Pomelo from this DIY spectrometer as well as the ...

A world-first multi-sensor detection of an intense gamma-ray flash has been observed by researchers from The University of ...

For the first time, scientists have caught lightning in the act of unleashing a powerful burst of gamma radiation known as a ...

It's not easy to imagine how high the frequency of a high-energy gamma ray is. During the time it takes for its wave to go through one cycle, a gamma-ray wave traveling at the speed of light will ...

Thunderstorms are known to generate gamma rays, the highest energy radiation on Earth. But pinning the burst to a specific bolt is new.

An international team of astronomers using the Einstein Probe reports the discovery of a new peculiar fast-evolving ...

For that you need a different instrument called a gamma-ray spectrometer ... The Pico calculates the pulses’ spectrum and generates a plot that can be stored on its on-board flash or downloaded ...

An international research team including the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU, WPI ...
