**Gamma Rays from Sun’s Poles Could Predict Solar Storms**

Lisbon, Portugal: Scientists are uncovering new insights into the sun’s activity that could help predict extreme solar events that could impact Earth’s technology and communications. In a recent study, researchers discovered that certain regions of the sun emit more intense gamma ray radiation during specific solar cycles. This surprising finding challenges previous models that suggested gamma radiation should be uniform across the sun. The study, utilizing data collected from NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, found …

**Gamma Rays** Missing in Supernova Explosion: Shocking Discovery Challenges Cosmic Ray Theories

Montpellier, France – Scientists were surprised by the unexpected findings discovered during observations of the supernova SN 2023ixf in 2023. The event, located in the Pinwheel galaxy (Messier 101) about 22 million light-years away, provided a unique opportunity to study cosmic ray production. However, NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope did not detect the high-energy gamma rays that were anticipated to be produced by these particles. Previous estimates suggested that about 10% of a supernova’s total …
