frog Posted February 11, 2002 Report Share Posted February 11, 2002 The study of gamma-ray bursts is very exciting. If we can better understand the 'birth' and evolution of the Universe, we shall be in a much better position to predict the future. The NASA website has interesting news on gamma-ray burst, and I hope Hypography Sci-Tech will bring more on this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tormod Posted February 12, 2002 Report Share Posted February 12, 2002 Thanks, frog, that's a good idea. In fact, expect a review of Marcus Chown's book "The Magic Furnace" very soon - it covers the evolution of the stars from the Big Bang until today, and gives clues as to how to interpret the gamma ray bursts. It should also be a great topic for a future hypography special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
