GRB 190114C
The highest energy light from a GRB has been observed in this burst with energies up to 1 TeV.
This confirms a prediction made more than 20 years ago using a model that also first predicted that rebrightenings in the light curve in longer wavelengths would also be observed. This has since been confirmed as a normal feature in GRBs. This model also first predicted that GRBs can be much longer and much shorter. In fact since then very short GRBs have now been confirmed but erroneously assumed to be a seperate phenomena known as FRBs.
My model also first and correctly predicted more than 20 years ago that the rate of evolution of the bursts would follow a distinct profile of a decay from high to low energies proportional to wavelength. ( described in wiki as " The component frequencies of each burst are delayed by different amounts of time depending on the wavelength.)
This model predicts that the same evolution/ time lag in the burst profile is visible in all wavelengths longer (and shorter) than gamma in all GRBs. But due to limited data in longer wavelength observations to date, this has not yet been accepted as fact. In particular in optical this feature should be notable. That is if observed in multiple optical wavelengths simultaneously, rebrightenings will be observed to being delayed slightly later in longer optical wavelengths compared to the same rebrightening seen in shorter optical wavelengths.
In fact contrary to current understanding, as the following links show, this self similar lightcurve profile in all observed wavelengths is indeed now seen in the data. But not yet accepted by the science community because it is considered not possible under current theory ( including relativity)
One problem of not having sufficient data being that Swift is not able to simultaneously observe in multiple optical wavelengths. But rather always in one optical wavelength at a time. When a satelitte that is able to observe simultaneously in multiple optical wavelengths from UV through IR to G this prediction made by my model will be verified.
(Unfortunately in 2000 a paper outlining this model and first and correctly predicting all these attributes described above and later and subsequently observed in GRB data was submitted but not accepted for publication in Nature. Due to "lack of substantiating and quantifying data"!)
