Three Types Extreme-Energy Space Particles Unified Origin
2018/2/1
One of the biggest mysteries in astroparticle physics has been the origins of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays, very high-energy neutrinos, and high-energy gamma rays. Now, a new theoretical model reveals...
Fast Radio Bursts ‘Twists And Shouts’ Help Scientists Determine Source Of Cosmic Blasts
Fast Radio Bursts Twists Shouts Scientists Cosmic Blasts
2018/1/31
An international group of astronomers has found that the Cornell University-discovered fast radio burst FRB 121102 – a brief, gigantic pulse of radio waves from 3 billion light years away – passes thr...

Supermassive Black Holes Control Star Formation Large Galaxies
2018/1/10
Young galaxies blaze with bright new stars forming at a rapid rate, but star formation eventually shuts down as a galaxy evolves. A new study, published January 1, 2018, in Nature, shows that the mass...

Six Decade Old Space Mystery Shoebox-Sized Satellite CubeSat
2017/12/19
A 60-year-old mystery about the source of energetic, potentially damaging particles in Earth's radiation belts has been solved using data from a shoebox-sized satellite built and operated by students....
Black holes are famous for their muscle: an intense gravitational pull known to gobble up entire stars and launch streams of matter into space at almost the speed of light.It turns out the reality may...
