Captain America: Brave New World is about to hit cinemas, bringing with it the gamma-ray-powered Red Hulk. Here's what you need to know about that high-energy radiation.

The Compton camera can precisely measure this scattering angle and the polarization of these gamma rays, which indicates properties of particles within the atom, such as the value of quantum ...

Yep, you read that correctly. Sometimes, a gamma ray will run into an atom and produce an electron and a positron, which is an electron's antimatter opposite.

In a recent study, scientists found that some portions of the sun emit more intense gamma ray radiation than others.

Far more of the 125,000 atom-bomb casualties at Hiroshima and Nagasaki than were first reported came from the explosion's X-ray-like radiations. This fact, which medicine has long suspected, was ...

An enormous gamma-ray burst from a dying star was the most powerful recorded, scientists have said.

An unusual, long-lasting gamma-ray burst challenges theories about how they work In a few seconds, a gamma-ray burst emits as much energy as the Sun will radiate in its entire life ...

Scientists have pinned down the energy produced by an unusually bright gamma-ray burst detected in 2022, and wow is it a whopper.

Nuclear structure: the inner workings of some rare nuclei could soon be better understood by using a multilayer Compton camera. (Courtesy: iStock/Girolamo-Sferrazza-Papa) A Compton camera has been ...

IT has long been known that some of the radio-elements emit a penetrating type of X-rays known as the gamma rays. It is clear that these radiations arising from the nucleus of the radioactive atom ...
