What type of wave does the compton gamma ray detect?
Like the name suggest, the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory detects gamma rays.
Is gamma ray a visible light?
No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
What is hotter than the sun gamma ray or plasma?
gamma rays are by order of magnitude trillions of times hotter than the sun and even higher
What other things in the sky occur in a sequence or cycle?
Well, Binary Stars, and Gamma Ray Bursts may be worth an investigation. As would be the Cepheid Variables, those famous stars that first gave us a yardstick with which to measure the size of the Universe!And have a crack at Henrietta Swan Leavitt while you are at it. A much overlooked scientist.
What wavelengths can you not see?
Everything outside of about 400-800 nm i.e. Radio mirco wave infrared ultraviolet x-ray gamma ray
What is 1 discovery for the compton gamma ray?
It showed that most gamma ray bursts come from other galaxies, not our own. This means that gamma ray bursts must be extremely powerful.
What does gbr mean?
it means gamma ray bursts
What is the biggest explosion in the universe?
Long Gamma ray bursts
What are two possible causes of gamma ray bursts?
neutron stars and black holes
Do gamma ray bursts emit light faster than the speed of light?
Gamma ray bursts emitting light! What is meant by this? Any way gamma ray coming out of a radioactive nucleus is also an electromagnetic radiation as light but with very much higher frequency. Gamma ray also travels with the same speed as light does. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, no radiation can travel with a velocity higher than that of light
What is gamma ray bursts?
A gamma ray burst results from an extremely energetic implosion/explosion, as in supernovae or hypernovae events, or the less likely possibility of the combination of 2 neutron stars.
What would happen to earth if it got hit by a gamma-ray burst?
Earth gets hit every day by gamma-ray bursts - from far, far away. Depending on how near the gamma-ray burst is, it may cause some serious damage.
What has the author Seth Digel written?
There is no known author named Seth Digel as of now.
What do astronomer's study?
Lisa Kewley studied cosmic rays and gamma-ray bursts.
What has the author K Hurley written?
K. Hurley has written: 'Analysis of data from the transient gamma-ray spectrometer experiment on the GGS/WIND spacecraft' -- subject(s): Gamma ray bursts, Gamma ray spectrometers, Ulysses mission, Annuli, Energy spectra
What has the author Gerald J Fishman written?
Gerald J. Fishman has written: 'Observations of gamma-ray bursts' -- subject(s): Galactic radiation, Gamma rays, Galactic cosmic rays, Bursts, Time lag, Isotrophy
How many gamma ray bursts would scientist detec in a week?
We actually only find a few a year.
