An Extremely Luminous Panchromatic Outburst from the Nucleus of a Distant Galaxy

An Extremely Luminous Panchromatic Outburst from the Nucleus of a Distant Galaxy

Variable x-ray and g-ray emission is characteristic of the most extreme physical processes inthe universe. We present multiwavelength observations of a unique g-ray–selected transientdetected by the Swift satellite, accompanied by bright emission across the electromagneticspectrum, and whose propert...
