Study identifies where giant jets from black holes discharge their energy
Updated : 5 years, 2 months ago IST
Washington [US], December 16 (ANI): Scientists have perpetually disagreed about where the powerful jets from the black holes discharge their energy. A new study has revealed the primary way that the jets discharge this powerful motion energy is by converting it into extremely high-energy gam

Gamma-ray bursts are highest energetic explosions ever seen
Updated : 2 years, 4 months ago IST
Washington D.C [USA], Nov 21 (ANI): Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely energetic explosions that have been observed in distant galaxies. They give out most of their energy in gamma rays, light which is much more energetic than the visible light we can see with our eyes.
