The most powerful light explosion was recorded in the spring of 2013 several NASA observatories and satellites at once, as well as specialists – astrophysicists of various countries. Unknown flash is inherently heavy duty gamma radiation, source which is located in the constellation Leo. According to European scientists, the explosion has become one of the most strong gamma-ray bursts in the entire modern history of observing starry sky. How astrophysicists at the Niels Bohr Institute established Copenhagen, the outbreak has generated an unprecedented stream of light particles. It is worth explaining that gamma-ray bursts or gamma-ray bursts are the most powerful types of explosions occurring in The universe. In the vast majority of cases, the reasons for such explosions become explosions of giant stars. And on their own stars may not even be known to scientists, but when they die, they release so much energy that the flash seen over many hundreds of millions of light years. Howbeit, serious outbreaks are very unique. Gamma-ray bursts, although they have increased brightness, not at all time-consuming. Besides Moreover, it is difficult to observe gamma-ray bursts due to absorption Earth’s atmosphere of radiation of this kind. At the beginning of the year gamma-ray burst is called GRB 130472A. According to scientists, the explosion occurred at a distance exceeding 3.6 billion light years from our planet. The stream of light that has arisen in the result of a burst released during the explosion of a star, density which by this moment exceeded its usual density of tens or hundreds of times. The blast wave forms a luminous shell, consisting of particles of stellar dust and the remnants of the star itself. Spectral analysis of the luminous flux that reached the Earth allowed establish that the exploded cosmic body in his The initial state was comparable to the size of the sun. However, despite the fact that the size of the dead star was close to the size The sun, its mass exceeded the solar 20-30 times! Based the generally accepted classification of stars, the exploding luminary was typical star – a dwarf with a high degree of density and fast rotation. Becoming the brightest and most powerful flash in many years, GRB 130472A gamma-ray burst caused dynamic vibrations of a huge strength. For astronomers and astrophysicists involved in observation and By studying the flash, the gamma-ray burst that occurred gives rise to more questions. Despite the fact that such explosions by scientists are not bad studied, GRB 130472A has become a source for many puzzles. For example, special space telescopes found in fixed luminous flux significantly larger number of photons. Moreover, gamma radiation energy was much higher than that predicted on theoretical gamma-ray burst models similar in scale to what happened. Research actively continue, and their results will contribute to new discoveries in the field of particle acceleration physics.
