Gamma rays can only be detected by sensors made of dense metals and takes over six feet (1.8 meters) of concrete to block.

Researchers highlighted the efficacy of machine learning (ML) in improving uranium spectral gamma-ray logging, particularly using backpropagation (BP) neural networks. Addressing challenges like ...

As with the gamma ray only correction, MALC-corrected neutron and gamma ray logs brought the responses back to original, unaltered values, but did not affect the density log during the correction.

A gamma ray burst — possibly the brightest of all time — sweeps over Earth The explosion, dubbed GRB 221009A, came just as astronomers were gathering at a symposium on gamma-ray astrophysics ...

Thunderstorms produce gamma rays when electrons get accelerated in strong electric fields that build up inside the clouds (SN: 3/15/19). These electrons produce more electrons, and so on.

Gamma rays are the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation. In just a few seconds, a gamma-ray burst blasts out the same amount of energy that the Sun will radiate throughout its entire life.

We are also creating a table of the past gamma-ray bursts and the observations of the ozone layer and trying to see if they match,” he said. Nature Communications, 2023. DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023 ...

Shrouded in mystery for decades, gamma-ray bursts are the brightest explosions since the Big Bang and emerge from only the most violent cosmic events.

Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery, detecting the most powerful gamma rays ever observed in the Milky Way, emanating from its tumultuous center. These gamma rays, with energy levels ...

These massive releases of energy are rivaled by few in terms of sheer ferocity. In just a few seconds, a gamma-ray burst releases more energy than our sun is capable of generating in the entirety of ...

Scientists have spotted about 10,000 of these gamma-ray bursts since the 70s. But this particular burst was relatively close, coming from a star about 2.4 million light-years away, which gives us ...
