This artist's concept of the collapsar model shows the center of a dying star collapsing minutes before the star implodes and emits a gamma-ray burst that is seen across the universe. Many scientists say longer bursts (more than four seconds in duration) are caused by massive star explosions. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/165469main_403GRBCollapsarModelPar_NASAWebV_1/165469main_403GRBCollapsarModelPar_NASAWebV_1.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT Artist’s visualization of a merging binary system. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/Neutron_Star_Merge_H264_High_960x540/Neutron_Star_Merge_H264_High_960x540.dc.xml Gamma-ray bursts are common, yet random, and fleeting events that have mystified astronomers since their discovery in the late 1960s. Shorter bursts (less than two seconds in duration) are thought to be caused by mergers of binary systems with black holes or neutron stars. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/Neutron_Star_Merge_H264_High_960x540/Neutron_Star_Merge_H264_High_960x540.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT
