Difference between Astronomical object and Gamma-ray burst

Astronomical object vs. Gamma-ray burst

An astronomical object or celestial object is a naturally occurring physical entity, association, or structure that exists in the observable universe. In gamma-ray astronomy, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely energetic explosions that have been observed in distant galaxies.

Accretion disk

An accretion disk is a structure (often a circumstellar disk) formed by diffused material in orbital motion around a massive central body.
