the atmosphere of a planet affected by an event 2.5 billion light years away is insane. for reference that is about 500,000 times further than the furthest star you can see with the naked eye.
What Anton is referring to in the peak is known as the annihilation peak. It's a well-known effect in gamma ray spectroscopy. When a positron and electron annihilate, you get 2 511 keV gammas. This shows up as a peak in the vast majority of gamma ray spectroscopy. There is also an opposite reaction, that when two gamma rays above 511 keV interact, a positron and an electron can be created.
That's insane that it was from 2.5 billion light years away and could impact the atmosphere.
Anton's Ace in the Hole is the virtue of Humility. I love this humble observer of this material reality.
ahh, so we are saying GRBs are warp-core breaches! got it!!
Scotty: Ah canna control it Capin. She's gonna blow!!
Please take care of yourself, Anton. We need your shared wonder! Blessings, young man.
Are you a machine, Anton? ARE YOU A MACHINE!!!? Singlehandedly maintaining science interests for noobs like excel does for the whole economy.
Somewhere out there, some aliens overloaded their anti-matter reactor :D reminds me of an episode of Stargate... "You destroyed three-quarters of a solar system!"... "Five-sixths, but it's not an exact science."
You see, son, when an electron and a positron dislike each other very much...
