A group of astronomers found a source of high energy gamma rays next to supernova remnants G24.7 + 0.6. We still do not know what exactly creates a radiation that spreads in space in a hundred light years. This is reported by Phys.org.
While the object was called MAGIC J1835-069. It is 16,300 light-years from Earth. The remains of the supernova, which exploded about 9,500 years ago, have a complex structure. Some of them are rapidly expanding and have a pulsar (radiation source) in the center. Such remains strongly accelerate the particles at very high energies.
Three scientists, one of whom is the Fermi gamma telescope, allowed scientists to examine G24.7 + 0.6. They found the source of high energy radiation and fixed its length at about 98 light-years.
Although the nature of this object has not yet been fully understood, the experts believe, however, that this phenomenon can be explained by the high speed of cosmic rays inside the remnants of the supernova.
- The supernova remnants are mainly massive star remains that have completed their cycle with huge explosions.
- A star in height, or supernova flash, is a phenomenon in which the star greatly increases its brightness, then slowly decays
- found a new class of planets that contain many elements which make up sapphires and rubies. It is possible that they can shine.
