Short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are intense bursts of gamma-ray radiation that typically last for a few milliseconds to a couple of seconds, and are known for their high-energy emissions. These bursts are among the most powerful explosions in the universe and can release more energy in a few seconds than the Sun will emit over its entire lifetime.
