No gamma rays at these energies are able to penetrate the atmosphere and reach the ground. We only detect the particles indirectly. When a high energy particle enters the atmosphere, it creates a cascade of particles called an air shower. I

Astrophysicist here, I'm currently finishing my PhD, mainly focused on data analysis for the kind of telescopes that measured this GRB, while my main focus is on a smaller prototype telescope (FACT), I also work for the one that detect

I don't see why this should not be possible. Isn't this mainly about adding a a subject metadata field an a client that just displays messages differently, enables sorting into directories and so on? Is there a real technical diff

Yes, zstandard turned out to be the best option in all our tests on small to really large data (couple of mb to gigabytes filesize). A few percent better compression than gzip and nearly 50 % faster decompression. Gzip is pretty slow in the

I don't say the transition is easy or maintaining a codebase that handles these issues correct that supports python 3 and 2 at the same time. But looking solely at python3 , everything byte and unicode related just got so much easier a

Everytime I hear somebody claim python 3 broke strings I just cringe. No. No on just so many levels. It finally fixed it by introducing two (or three if you count bytearray) types for completely different semantics of data. Python 2 was jus

Astronomy has the need for both. A notion of an instant in time that advances linearly without any ambiguities, which would be TAI, and a notion of the precise orientation of Earth, which would be UTC. To record events, you will use TAI, to

Why would you ever want to do something like this in c++? What you are implementing is a map. Just use std::map.

Not a Problem in this case, the era is always a single character, a newly formed ligature of two kanjis. The code point was already reserved in unicode 11.0, so you could even just the unicode code point.

It's not like physicists didn't try. Nobody really likes the idea of particles or other stuff that is impossible to measure. But until now, General Relativity has passed every experimental test and most alternative approaches to d
