The long lag before astronomers began to pick up radio and x-ray emissions supports that picture, says Raffaella Margutti, an astrophysicist at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, who studied the event with NASA's orbiting Chandra X-ray Observatory.
«We've believed from studies here at Earth that there should be a good correlation between these kilometric radio emissions from the auroras and the auroras themselves,» Kurth says.
An interdisciplinary team of UvA physicists and astronomers proposed to search for primordial black holes in our galaxy by studying the X-ray and radio emission that these objects would produce as they wander through the galaxy and accrete gas from the interstellar medium.
Previous studies had measured the amount of radio emission coming from the distant Universe, but had not been capable of attributing all the radio waves to specific objects.
Her team studied infrared and radio wave emissions from disks in several star - forming clusters with well - known ages.
«Advancing technology has revealed more and more of the Universe to us over the past few decades, and our study shows individual objects that account for about 96 percent of the background radio emission coming from the distant Universe,» Condon said.
