Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) rank among the most powerful explosions in the universe, releasing immense energy in intense flashes ...

A dark matter signal that appears in one place but not another might look like a contradiction. This new study argues it may ...

The Milky Way’s center glows with an unexplained surplus of gamma rays. Smaller galaxies orbiting nearby do not. That ...

A new study suggests that failing to detect dark matter signals in some galaxies may not contradict evidence seen in our own.

Joseph Shavit The absence of a signal could itself be a signal. This is the idea behind a new study published in the Journal ...

A mysterious glow of gamma rays at the center of the Milky Way has long hinted at dark matter, but the lack of similar ...

Dark matter may consist of two particles, explaining why only the Milky Way shows a strange gamma-ray signal while smaller ...

For over a century, the star named Gamma-Cassiopeiae (or "Gamma-Cas") has puzzled astronomers. Visible to the naked eye in ...

Astronomers have spotted a bizarre cosmic explosion that refuses to play by the rules—and it’s leaving scientists scrambling for answers. GRB 250702B, detected by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and ...

New research shows that dark matter has a different distribution in our galaxy than previously thought, and that advances dark matter's status as a potential source of the observed gamma ray excess in ...

Scientists have developed a flexible shield that blocks up to 175% more gamma radiation, offering lightweight, advanced protection ...

Gamma-ray bursts are a relatively new field in space science. The first was discovered in the late 1960s, and in the nearly six decades since, there’s never been a discovery quite like this. It may ...
