Big thunderstorms continuously emit gamma rays that are undetectable from the ground, two studies said on Wednesday, upending what was previously thought -- and potentially pointing towards a clue ...

A new study explains how thunderstorm electric fields produce strong gamma‐ray glows with oscillating gamma‐ray rates, and that these oscillations develop into intense pulse trains that closely ...

An international team of astronomers reports the detection of four new gamma-ray millisecond pulsars using the Murriyang ...

Recent flights by NASA’s ER-2 aircraft have uncovered new types of gamma rays generated by thunderstorms. These observations indicate that gamma-ray glows are more common and long-lasting than ...

and supernovae—but also by regular ol’ thunderstorms here on Earth. “Over the last decade, people have discovered that these high-energy gamma rays are present in many, many types of very ...
