Conventional bombs (dynamite, TNT, etc.) are not powerful enough to produce gamma rays. Gamma rays are only produced in a nuclear bomb or a thermonuclear (hydrogen) bomb where nuclear reactions take place.

How can gamma rays detect?

Gamma rays can be detected using instruments like Geiger-Muller counters or scintillation detectors that can measure the energy and intensity of the gamma radiation. When gamma rays interact with these detectors, they produce electrical signals that can be amplified and analyzed to determine the presence and characteristics of the gamma rays.

Were there gamma rays in the singularity that gave rise to the big bang?

Yes, it is believed that gamma rays were present during the early stages of the Big Bang, produced as a result of high-energy processes. However, the extreme conditions of the early universe make it impossible to directly observe these gamma rays.
