Want to see cosmic rays? You might need a lot of expensive exotic gear. Nah. [The ActionLab] shows how a cup of coffee or cocoa can show you cosmic rays — or something — with just the right lighting ...

Researchers have detected an extremely energetic cosmic ray from an unknown source in the universe. The detection of a cosmic ray with such high energy is "exceedingly rare" and the latest discovery, ...

New analysis by Francesca Capel and Nadine Bourriche narrows possible sources of the Amaterasu cosmic ray, suggesting nearby galaxies like M82 rather than the Local Void.

UTAH (CNN/CNN Newsource/WKRC) - Scientists have detected the second most-powerful cosmic ray from beyond the Milky Way. Named the "Amaterasu Particle" after the sun goddess in Japanese mythology, the ...

For the first time, scientists have watched high‑energy cosmic rays at work deep inside a thick cloud of gas, not just at its outer surface. Using the High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC), ...

There are plenty of mysteries in the cosmos, and researchers from the University of Utah have found a new clue in one from more than 30 years ago. In 1991, scientists detected a cosmic ray so powerful ...

Cosmic rays inside a dense molecular cloud were measured for the first time, helping scientists better understand how stars begin forming.

An extremely energetic cosmic ray – an extragalactic particle with an energy exceeding ~240 exa-electron volts (EeV) – has been detected by the Telescope Array experiment’s surface detector, ...

Been there in the probation office when an acquaintance got arrested for exactly that. And, presumably, divorced -- he'd just gotten out the week prior from a lid, so there's no way the pregnancy had ...
