Those types of collisions would produce an extremely short gamma burst with no burst of light, which is the best fit for the data.

FORBES: A Gamma Ray Burst May Have Irradiated 8th Century Earth

Scientists have uncovered evidence showing that a gamma ray burst may have irradiated the Earth over 1200 years ago.
