Subatomic particles called muons could measure pressure changes in supercell thunderstorms and the twisters they kick up.

Ultra-high energy cosmic rays are energized by magnetic turbulence, not shock acceleration, according to new research.

A new study suggests that an ultra-energetic cosmic ray which approached Earth from the direction of a vast intergalactic ...

THE enormous energy possessed by the cosmic rays has given rise to many speculations as to how they could be generated, which have gone deep into the properties of the ultimate particles ...

"Some cosmic phenomena produce X-rays naturally," explains Dr. Przemek Mróz, the lead author of the study. "For example, X-rays may be produced by a hot gas falling onto compact objects like ...

Unleash your curiosity about millinovae, the cosmic newcomers that bridge the gap between two well-known types of exploding stars.

A pulsar which can be at most a few thousand light years away, could be the source of the cosmic rays. The H.E.S.S. Observatory in Namibia has detected the highest-energy cosmic ray electrons ever ...

Getting places in space quickly has been the goal of propulsion research for a long time. Rockets, our most common means of doing so, are great for providing lots of force but are extraordinarily ...

Cosmic rays altered Susan Storm on a cellular level, granting her the ability to generate impenetrable force fields and to make herself fade from sight in an instant. Despite her frequent lack of ...
