On the role of GRBs on life extinction in the Universe

Tsvi Piran, Raul Jimenez
(Submitted on 8 Sep 2014)
As a copious source of gamma-rays, a nearby Galactic Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) can be a
threat to life. Using recent determinations of the rate of GRBs, their luminosity
function and properties of their host galaxies, we estimate the probability that a
life-threatening (lethal) GRB would take place. Amongst the different kinds of GRBs,
long ones are most dangerous. There is a very good chance (but no certainty) that at
least one lethal GRB took place during the past 5 Gyr close enough to Earth as to
significantly damage life. There is a 50% chance that such a lethal GRB took place
during the last 500 Myr causing one of the major mass extinction events. Assuming
that a similar level of radiation would be lethal to life on other exoplanets
hosting life, we explore the potential effects of GRBs to life elsewhere in the
Galaxy and the Universe. We find that the probability of a lethal GRB is much larger
in the inner Milky Way (95% within a radius of 4 kpc from the galactic center),
making it inhospitable to life. Only at the outskirts of the Milky Way, at more than
10 kpc from the galactic center, this probability drops below 50%. When considering
the Universe as a whole, the safest environments for life (similar to the one on
Earth) are the lowest density regions in the outskirts of large galaxies and life
can exist in only ~ 10% of galaxies. Remarkably, a cosmological constant is
essential for such systems to exist. Furthermore, because of both the higher GRB
rate and galaxies being smaller, life as it exists on Earth could not take place at
z>0.5. Early life forms must have been much more resilient to radiation.

The presence of dwarf Pieral, who was so brilliant in the Cocteau classic directed by Jean Delannoy, THE ETERNAL RETURN, hints at Jean Cocteau as the inspiration for this nonsense. Cocteau wrote the guidebook for avant garde effects with his classic ORPHEE, and Fleischer studiously copies.

Staring at Jourdan kept my attention but I was quite disappointed at the misuse of Kinski here - it falls squarely in with his sincere love of working for "manageable" (read: HACK) directors.

Not interested in a debate, or for anyone to agree with me, nor am I interested in making keyboard friends. I'll state my opinion regardless if they conform to everyones. I take comfort in knowing we are all speculating.

2. Help them escape by giving them a glimpse of the good life, inspiring them, and "reinforcing the millennial values of embracing life and finding happiness along the off-roaded path to adulthood."
