The article discusses potential methods to peer beyond the cosmic microwave background 'wall' of the early universe, focusing on detecting faint X-ray and neutrino signals from primordial cosmic bursts, which could reveal information about events before 380,000 years after the Big Bang. It highlights future possibilities for indirect observation using advanced telescopes and detectors, despite current technological limitations.
Scientists led by Victor Pasko have uncovered the precise atmospheric chain reaction that triggers lightning, revealing how electric fields in thunderclouds accelerate electrons, produce X-rays, and initiate lightning through a cascade of high-energy photons and electrons, explaining phenomena like terrestrial gamma-ray flashes and their often dim optical and radio signatures.
A new study suggests that lightning on Earth is initiated by a chain reaction triggered by cosmic rays from outer space, which produce electron avalanches in storm clouds, explaining the high energy needed for lightning and associated gamma-ray and X-ray emissions.
Scientists have developed a new mathematical model that explains how lightning forms in thunderclouds, revealing that powerful electric fields accelerate electrons which produce X-rays and trigger lightning, potentially leading to new X-ray sources and better understanding of atmospheric phenomena.
Eugenio Suárez was hit by a pitch and sent for X-rays, but initial results are negative, offering relief to the Diamondbacks who are considering trading him before the deadline due to their poor season and injury issues. Suárez, a top hitter, remains a prime trade candidate, with teams showing interest, but further testing is awaited to confirm his injury status.
A new study reveals that micro-CT scanning, widely considered a non-destructive method for studying fossils, can actually cause significant collagen loss and potentially damage the preservation of fossils, suggesting the technique should be used more cautiously to avoid irreversible impacts on valuable specimens.
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee researchers, as part of a global team, discovered a unique space object emitting both radio waves and X-rays, potentially leading to the identification of a new star type and advancing understanding of the universe. The discovery involved advanced telescopic techniques and may influence technological fields like AI and algorithms, inspiring future generations of scientists and technologists.
Astronomers have discovered a unique cosmic object, ASKAP J1832-0911, 15,000 light-years away in the Milky Way, that emits both radio waves and X-rays in a 44-minute cycle, potentially revealing new physics or stellar evolution models. The simultaneous detection by radio and X-ray telescopes suggests many more such objects may exist, challenging current understanding of stellar phenomena.
A mysterious object in our galaxy, ASKAP J1832-0911, pulses every 44 minutes emitting both radio waves and X-rays, challenging existing classifications of stars like pulsars, white dwarfs, or magnetars, and prompting new theories about stellar magnetic fields and behaviors.
Using advanced AI and X-ray imaging, researchers have made significant progress in reading charred scrolls from Herculaneum, potentially revealing lost ancient Greek and Latin writings, including philosophical works, without damaging the fragile artifacts.
Astronomers have discovered a new mysterious object in the Milky Way emitting both radio waves and X-rays with a 44-minute cycle, possibly a highly magnetized dead star or an unknown exotic object, located 15,000 light-years away, raising questions about its nature and whether more such objects exist.
Astronomers have discovered a unique space object, ASKAP J1832-0911, emitting regular two-minute pulses of radio waves and X-rays every 44 minutes, which may suggest new physics or stellar evolution models, as current theories are insufficient to explain its behavior.
Astronomers have discovered a mysterious object in the Milky Way emitting synchronized X-rays and radio waves every 44 minutes, which could be a highly magnetized dead star or an entirely unknown exotic object, challenging current understanding of galactic phenomena.
Astronomers have discovered a mysterious deep-space object, ASKAP J1832-0911, emitting unusual radio and X-ray signals every 44 minutes, which could indicate new physics or stellar evolution models, but its exact nature remains unknown.
Astronomers have discovered a new cosmic object, ASKAP J1832-0911, that emits pulses of radio waves and X-rays every 44 minutes, marking the first detection of such long-period transients in X-rays, which could reveal new insights into stellar phenomena or physics.
