Hercules Corona Borealis Great Wall

Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall or the Great GRB Wall is the largest known structure in the observable universe, measuring approximately 10 billion light years in length. For perspective, the universe is only 13. 8 billion years old. This massive galactic superstructure in a region of the sky seen in the data set mapping of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that has been found to have an unusually higher concentration of similarly distanced GRBs than the expected average distribution. It was discovered in early November 2013 by a team of American and Hungarian astronomers led by István Horváth, Jon Hakkila and Zsolt Bagoly while analyzing data from the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission, together with other data from ground-based telescopes. It is the largest known formation in the universe, exceeding the size of the prior Huge-LQG by about two times. The overdensity lies at the Second, Third and Fourth Galactic Quadrants (NQ2, NQ3 and NQ4) of the sky. Thus, it lies in the Northern Hemisphere, centered on the border of the constellations Draco and Hercules. The entire clustering consists of around 19 GRBs with the redshift ranges between 1. 6 and 2. 1. Typically, the distribution of GRBs in the universe appears in the sets of less than the 2σ distribution, or with less than two GRBs in the average data of the point-radius system. Thus, such a concentration as this appears extremely unlikely, given accepted theoretical models. One possible explanation of this concentration is the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall. This is an extremely huge structure within the universe, with a mean size in excess of 2 billion to 3 billion parsecs (6 to 10 billion light-years). Such a supercluster can explain the significant distribution of GRBs because of its tie to star formation. The Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall is now the largest known structure in the observable universe. The Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall contains many billions of galaxies, depending on how they are counted. Got
