In gamma-ray astronomy , " gamma-ray bursts " ( " GRBs " ) are extremely energetic explosions that have been observed in distant galaxies .


The intense radiation of most observed GRBs is thought to be released during a supernova or superluminous supernova as a high-mass star implodes to form a neutron star or a black hole .


The similarities between the two events , in terms of gamma ray , optical and x-ray emissions , as well as to the nature of the associated host galaxies , are " striking " , suggesting the two separate events may both be the result of the merger of neutron stars , and both may be a kilonova , which may be more common in the universe than previously understood , according to the researchers .


The first such mission , HETE-2 , was launched in 2000 and functioned until 2006 , providing most of the major discoveries during this period .


New developments since the 2000 s include the recognition of short gamma-ray bursts as a separate class ( likely from merging neutron stars and not associated with supernovae ) , the discovery of extended , erratic flaring activity at X-ray wavelengths lasting for many minutes after most GRBs , and the discovery of the most luminous ( GRB 080319B ) and the former most distant ( GRB 090423 ) objects in the universe .
