Wolf-Rayet 104's Orbit Tilt Reduces Gamma-Ray Burst Threat, Study Finds
- Thursday March 20, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
New research using Keck Observatory’s instruments confirms that the orbit of Wolf-Rayet 104 is tilted 30-40 degrees away from Earth, lowering concerns about a possible gamma-ray burst. Previously, it was believed that the system’s alignment could pose a risk. However, spectroscopy data now challenges these assumptions, raising new questions abo...

Neutron Star Collision Captured in Millimetre Light for the First Time
- Friday August 5, 2022
- Edited by Gadgets 360 Newsdesk
Researchers have found a way to capture millimetre-wavelength light originating from a collision of a neutron star with another star. The flash emerging from this collision was among the most energetic short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) ever observed, according to the researchers.

Study Explains Blinking Gamma-Ray Bursts Using Falling Stardust, Unsteady Jets
- Tuesday July 5, 2022
- ANI
Astrophysicists have developed the first 3D simulation of the entire evolution of a jet from its birth by a rotating black hole to its emission far from the collapsing star. Simulation explains that as the star collapses, its material falls on the disk that swirls around the black hole. This falling material tilts the disk, and, in turn, tilts the ...

Gamma Ray Emission, Trillion Times More Energetic Than Light, Observed
- Thursday November 21, 2019
- Science | Press Trust of India
In a cosmic first, researchers have observed the most powerful and luminous yet known energy release -- a trillion times more energetic than visible light -- in the brightest type of electromagnetic events known to occur in the universe called gamma-ray bursts (GRBs).
