科學家今天揭露,來自外太空既神秘且強大的無線電電波正以聚集成束方式朝地球而來,它們的存在直到10年前才被發現。
根據刊登在「自然」(Nature)期刊的研究,這些電波是從銀河系邊緣外發射。
這些所謂的快速電波爆發(FRBs),以往被認為是一次性現象。
2007年以來,這些電波被偵測到不及20束,不過科學家懷疑,此一電波每天產生超過1萬束。
這些電波的出處仍屬未知。直至目前,天文學家猜測是由恆星爆炸成為超新星等大變動事件造成,或是中子星崩解成黑洞所致。
Study: outbreak of the mysterious waves in outer space to Earth
2016-03-03 Central 22:48 Agency, Paris reported
Scientists revealed today, from outer space is both mysterious and powerful radio waves towards the Earth is gathered into a bunch of ways, their presence was not discovered until 10 years ago.
According to findings published in "nature" (Nature) Journal of research, these waves are launched from off the edge of the milky way.
These so-called fast-wave bursts (FRBs), was previously considered to be a one-off phenomenon.
Since 2007, these waves are detected more than 20 bundle, but scientists suspect that the waves are produced every day, more than 10,000 bundles.
These waves of source of information is still not known. Until now, astronomers suspect was caused by cataclysmic events such as Star explodes as a supernova or neutron stars collapse into black holes.
