Difference between Annihilation and Compton Gamma Ray Observatory

Annihilation vs. Compton Gamma Ray Observatory

In particle physics, annihilation is the process that occurs when a subatomic particle collides with its respective antiparticle to produce other particles, such as an electron colliding with a positron to produce two photons. The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) was a space observatory detecting photons with energies from 20 keV to 30 GeV, in Earth orbit from 1991 to 2000.

Similarities between Annihilation and Compton Gamma Ray Observatory

Annihilation and Compton Gamma Ray Observatory have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Electronvolt, Gamma ray, Pair production, Photon, Positron.

Electronvolt

In physics, the electronvolt (symbol eV, also written electron-volt and electron volt) is a unit of energy equal to approximately joules (symbol J).
