The energy of a photon is equal to the product of a constant number [h] called Planck’s multiplied by the frequency [v], or number of vibrations per second [E=hv] ... Photons that are visible to the human eye have energy levels around 1 electron volt (eV) and frequencies from 1014 to 1015 Hz ...

"One of the best places to look for these faint gamma-ray signals is in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, small satellites of our own Milky Way galaxy that we know possess large amounts of dark matter," Siegal-Gaskins explained. "[Boring] astrophysical ... systems, with little gas or star formation and no objects like pulsars or supernova remnants that emit gamma rays." ... many dwarfs lie far away from the plane of our galaxy, which produces a broad band of diffuse gamma-ray emission that stretches all around the sky.

Fermi is a powerful space observatory that will open a wide window on the universe. Gamma rays are the highest-energy form of light ... Fermi data will enable scientists to answer persistent questions across a broad range of topics, including supermassive black-hole systems, pulsars, the origin of cosmic rays, and searches for signals of new physics.

... Research [is focused] on revealing the properties of dark matter using observational probes such as gamma rays and other high-energy particles ... NASA['s] "revelation" on Thursday will be exciting in that we have discovered some very important details [forms stars] about the 70% of Dark Matter that exists in our universe by looking at our own Milky Way Galaxy.

During a powerful solar blast on March 7, NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected the highest-energy light ever associated with an eruption on the sun. The discovery heralds Fermi's new role as a solar observatory ... The flux of high-energy gamma rays, defined as those with energies beyond 100 million electron volts (MeV), was 1,000 times greater than the sun's steady output ... Fermi's LAT detected high-energy gamma rays for about 20 hours ... "Seeing the rise and fall of this brief flare in both instruments allowed us to determine that some of these particles were accelerated to two-thirds of the speed of light in as little as 3 seconds."

NASA's Cassini spacecraft has "sniffed" molecular oxygen ions around Saturn's icy moon Dione ... Dione's oxygen appears to derive from either solar photons or energetic particles from space bombarding the moon's water ice surface and liberating oxygen molecules.

NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has unveiled a previously unseen structure centered in the Milky Way. The feature spans 50,000 light-years and may be the remnant of an eruption from a supersized black hole at the center of our galaxy. "What we see are two gamma-ray-emitting bubbles that extend 25,000 light-years north and south of the galactic center" ...
