Pulsar’s Record-Breaking Gamma Rays Baffle Scientists

Using the H.E.S.S. observatory in Namibia, scientists have detected exceptionally high-energy gamma rays from the Vela pulsar, challenging established theories on pulsed gamma rays from such stars. These gamma rays, with energy levels 200 times more potent than any previous observations from the Vela pulsar, have prompted researchers to reconsider the mechanisms behind such powerful emissions.
