For the first time, the Tibet ASγ Experiment has successfully measured magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence on scales below one parsec (approximately 3.3 light-years) within the gamma-ray halo ...

In January, two astronomers captured the world’s fascination when they announced that the universe’s collective color is a pale shade of green. However, this cosmic tint didn’t sit right with some ...

Astronomers have worked out the colour of the Universe — and it's a shade between aquamarine and a pale turquoise. This is the colour resulting from a 'census' of light from 166,000 galaxies, captured ...

Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) are energetic particles traveling across the Galaxy as high-energy beams, and are a unique probe to explore the astrophysical particle accelerators and the interstellar ...

The Universe may appear like a vast expanse of darkness but the average colour is actually beige, according to scientists. They studied the colour of light emitted by 200,000 galaxies to see what the ...

WASHINGTON -- When Mother Nature decorated the universe, she chose a color slightly greener than a pale, pale turquoise. And like an ordinary human homeowner, she'll redecorate eventually, shifting to ...

THE shape of the spectrum of cosmic ray electrons in the 100 GeV range and beyond can provide information about a variety of problems in cosmic ray astrophysics. The differential energy spectrum ...
