Which phenomenon represents a higher order of magnitude in total instantaneous electromagnetic energy release, particularly in high-energy bands?
Answer
A Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB).
GRBs unleash a focused beam of gamma rays so intense that they represent an event of higher total instantaneous electromagnetic energy across the spectrum compared to the visible light of the associated supernova.
