Watch the evolution of a jet formed by a collapsing star ("collapsar") in these simulations courtesy of Ore Gottlieb/Northwestern University. The wobble of the jets may be the source of mysterious ...
To detect those lower-energy X-rays, BlackCAT has two tools in its toolbox—an array of CMOS X-ray cameras and a coded mask imager. The array of cameras, which includes four separate cameras, is ...
Spectrum-energy correlations of peak energy with total prompt γ-ray emission energies, namely Ep,i - Eiso, Ep,i - Eγ, and Ep,i - Lp, had been studied for long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) previously by ...
