"We have observed strong lasing phenomena in inner-shell X-ray lasing and been able to simulate and calculate how it evolves," says Uwe Bergmann, physics professor at UW–Madison, and senior author on ...

NASA has released a collection of beautiful images which combine X-ray observations from the Chandra Observatory with other wavelengths.

NASA's Chandra Observatory has combined different wavelength images of the Andromeda galaxy to honor astronomer Vera Rubin, and then created a music video by converting the light in those images to ...

A new study of a star undergoing the throes of a supernova death has revealed that bursts of X-radiation known as fast-X-ray ...

The longer the better: Optical long-wavelength pulses generate brilliant ultrashort hard x-ray flashes Date: November 11, 2014 Source: Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. (FVB) Summary: Researchers have ...

X-ray spectroscopy is a technique that detects and measures photons, or particles of light, that have wavelengths in the X-ray portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. It's used to help scientists ...

Using the new eROSITA X-ray telescope, scientists have created a beautiful image showing the deepest ever view of the sky as seen in the X-ray wavelength.

Using a combination of telescopes, astronomers have characterized the closest supernova linked to a fast X-ray transient. The ...

NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory provides a new look at the Andromeda galaxy in this multi-wavelength image that includes ...

Created as a tribute to dark matter pioneer Vera Rubin, the image was created with the aid of a vast array of telescopes.

The X-ray photons that the sample emits in the same forward direction as the input pulse hit a piece of instrumentation that disperses them by wavelength, much like a prism disperses visible light ...
