Astronomers have discovered 84 mysterious objects in nearby galaxies that had previously gone undetected in data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. The researchers have classified them as "hyper-soft X-ray sources" because they emit relatively low-energy radiation. Most of their radiation is believed to be in the extreme ultraviolet spectrum, which is absorbed by interstellar gas and does not reach Earth. According to the researchers, some o…
ASTRONOMERS have discovered 84 "hyper-bright" X-ray sources in nearby galaxies. These extremely bright but hard-to-see objects could be white dwarfs about to go supernova.
They were sending unusually low-energy X-rays, but they produced intense levels of UV radiation. Scientists found a total of 84 high-soft X-ray sources (Hypersoft X-ray sources), ... this content discovered mysterious objects in space acting in a way that scientists had never seen before appeared first in Sawlev.
