Researchers are unraveling a cosmic mystery that has long plagued scientists.

Researchers at the Australian National University have unraveled a space puzzle that has long plagued scientists.
Researchers have found an alternative explanation for the mysterious “gamma-ray” signal emitted from the center of our galaxy by a hopping deer, according to phys.org.
Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation. These rays have long been considered a sign of dark matter.
Study co-author Professor Roland Crocker said: “This gamma-ray signal, known as the galactic center excess, may come from a specific type of rapidly rotating neutron star, or from some ultradense debris from some stars that are more massive than us.” The sun.
The galactic central excess is the sudden concentration of gamma rays emanating from the center of our galaxy that has long plagued astronomers.
“Our work offers another potential source” for this signal, Professor Crocker said, adding: “It is based on millisecond pulsars or neutron stars that spin very fast, about 100 times per second.”
And this discovery could mean scientists need to reconsider where to look for dark matter.
“The nature of dark matter is not fully understood,” said Professor Crocker. So any potential leads cause a lot of excitement. But our results point to another important source of gamma-ray production. ”
