Beyond better testing, we need better protection. Physical shields seem like the obvious first defense. Hydrogen-rich ...

High-energy cosmic rays errors possibly created a soft error, known as a "bit flip," in the onboard avionics of the Airbus ...

How common are Earth-like planets in the universe? When I started working on supernova explosions, I never imagined that my ...

Electrons released when cosmic rays strike water-ice can provide energy for microbes and facilitate the formation of complex ...

The most powerful cosmic-ray electrons and positrons ever detected slamming into Earth's atmosphere carry energies so high they can only have come from relatively close by, new research has revealed.

Scientists have recently identified electrons and positrons with the highest energies ever recorded on Earth. They provide evidence of cosmic processes emitting colossal amounts of energy, the origins ...

New observations reveal that the relationship between ultraviolet and X-ray light in quasars has changed over billions of ...

(a)The UHE gamma-ray emission is clearly observed from the W51 complex, which hosts the supernova remnant W51C and star forming region W51B. (b) The “bending” feature around tens TeV indicates the ...
