People have taken to the streets of Nantes, a city in western France, to protest against French President Emmanuel Macron’s planned reform of labor laws. The demonstration is being held after the members of the General Confederation of Labor (CGT union) called on activists in France to take part in protests across the country.

Researchers at DESY have compiled an extensive catalogue of variable sources of cosmic gamma radiation. For his doctoral thesis, Matteo Giomi, working at DESY in Zeuthen, analysed almost 7.5 years of observational data from NASA’s “Fermi” space telescope. Over that period, the “Large Area Telescope” (LAT) on board the satellite registered a total of 4547 bursts of gamma radiation, known as flares. Thanks to improved analytical methods, Giomi was able to assign these flares to 518 variable sources. The “Fermi All-Sky Variability Analysis” (FAVA) also lists 77 unknown sources, whose identity has not yet been determined. The “Fermi” scientists are presenting their catalogue in the Astrophysical Journal.
“The catalogue comprises a wide range of gamma-ray sources,” explains Giomi. “Most of the sources in the catalogue are eruptions in extremely distant, so-called active galactic nuclei, but we are also seeing binary star systems involving white dwarfs and black holes, neutron stars and other remnants of stellar explosions.” In all cases, the recorded gamma rays are produced by subatomic particles, which are accelerated to extremely high energies by a range of mechanisms. The catalogue will make it easier for astroparticle physicists to figure out precisely how the different cosmic particle accelerators work.
“We are looking at the particles while they are in the process of being accelerated, so to speak,” says DESY’s Rolf Bühler, who supervised the thesis. “In steadily radiating galaxies, the acceleration can take thousands of years. In the variable sources, by contrast, the acceleration must be taking place on roughly the same timescale as the flare. This gives us some clues about the acceleration process. For example, an accelerator cannot be larger than the distance travelled by light over the duration of the flare.”

The UN Security Council has adopted new sanctions against North Korea, with Russia and China reiterating their call for a ‘double freeze’ plan on DPRK.
Under the plan, Pyongyang would stop its nuclear and ballistic missile tests, and in return America and South Korea would stop their joint military exercises. Ahead of the vote, the North Korean leader warned that Washington would pay a price if its tougher draft resolution was passed.
