What Is Gamma Distribution? (Definition, Uses, Examples) | Built In

A team of astronomers is using machine learning to analyze gamma-ray burst data from our Swift observatory and ground-based telescopes including the Subaru Telescope, to better estimate the distances to these powerful cosmic events. This research also helps us learn more about the causes of different types of gamma-ray bursts, such as the explosions of massive stars or the merging of dense, compact objects called neutron stars. This analysis will provide other insights, such as determining if ga
