NASA’s Fermi Glimpses Power Source of Supercharged Supernovae

https://science.nasa.gov/missions/fermi/nasas-fermi-glimpses-power-source-of-supercharged-supernovae/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nn202620 An international team studying data from NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope concludes the mission detected a rare, unusually luminous supernova. The researchers say it likely received its power-up from a supermagnetized neutron star born in the stellar collapse that triggered the explosion.
