Scientists have long been intrigued by such short and intence bursts --- transient X-ray pulses of energies several times that of the Sun and length ranging from a fraction of a few millisecond to a few microseconds.

Scientists have found the first clues to understand violent short duration flares from a compact star of rare category called magnetar located 13 million light years away, an official statement said.

Indian astronomers have found an active galaxy in a very bright state with 10 times more X-ray emission than normal, equivalent to more than 10 trillion of the sun, and located five billion light years away that could help probe how particles behave under intense gravity and acceleration to the speed of light.

This galaxy emits X rays that are supposed to be 10 times higher or equivalent to more than 10 trillion of the sun as compared to any normal one and is located at a distance of 5 billion light years away
