Updating the first CHIME/FRB catalog of fast radio bursts with baseband data

FRB Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Bridget C. Andersen +57

In 2021, a catalog of 536 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) radio telescope was released by the CHIME/FRB Collaborat…

CHIME Discovery of a Binary Pulsar with a Massive Non-Degenerate Companion

Bridget C. Andersen, Emmanuel Fonseca, J. W. McKee +25

Of the more than radio pulsars currently known, only are in binary systems, and only five of these consist of young pulsars with massive non-degenerate compan…

A sudden period of high activity from repeating Fast Radio Burst 20201124A

Adam E. Lanman, Bridget C. Andersen, Pragya Chawla +30

The repeating FRB 20201124A was first discovered by CHIME/FRB in November of 2020, after which it was seen to repeat a few times over several months. It entered a period of high ac…

A fast radio burst localized at detection to an edge-on galaxy using very-long-baseline interferometry

Tomas Cassanelli, Calvin Leung, Pranav Sanghavi +48

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration, luminous radio transients of extragalactic origin. These events have been used to trace the baryonic structure of the Universe us…

A Synoptic VLBI Technique for Localizing Non-Repeating Fast Radio Bursts with CHIME/FRB

Calvin Leung, Juan Mena-Parra, Kiyoshi Masui +17

We demonstrate the blind interferometric detection and localization of two fast radio bursts (FRBs) with 2- and 25-arcsecond precision on the 400-m baseline between the Canadian Hy…

Modeling the Morphology of Fast Radio Bursts and Radio Pulsars with fitburst

Emmanuel Fonseca, Ziggy Pleunis, Daniela Breitman +11

We present a framework for modeling astrophysical pulses from radio pulsars and fast radio bursts (FRBs). This framework, called fitburst, generates synthetic representations of dy…

Sub-second periodicity in a fast radio burst

FRB Collaboration, Bridget C. Andersen, Kevin Bandura +59

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration flashes of radio waves that are visible at distances of billions of light-years. The nature of their progenitors and their emissio…

Observations of Fast Radio Bursts at Frequencies down to 400 Megahertz

FRB Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Kevin Bandura +52

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are highly dispersed millisecond-duration radio flashes likely arriving from far outside the Milky Way galaxy. This phenomenon was discovered at radio freq…

The second set of pulsar discoveries by CHIME/FRB/Pulsar: 14 Rotating Radio Transients and 7 pulsars

Fengqiu Adam Dong, Kathryn Crowter, Bradley W. Meyers +13

The Canadian Hydrogen Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a radio telescope located in British Columbia, Canada. The large FOV allows CHIME/FRB to be an exceptional pulsar and Rotating R…

The First CHIME/FRB Fast Radio Burst Catalog

FRB Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Bridget C. Andersen +73

We present a catalog of 536 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) Project between 400 and 800 MHz fro…

CHIME/FRB Catalog 1 results: statistical cross-correlations with large-scale structure

Masoud Rafiei-Ravandi, Kendrick M. Smith, Dongzi Li +38

The CHIME/FRB Project has recently released its first catalog of fast radio bursts (FRBs), containing 492 unique sources. We present results from angular cross-correlations of CHIM…

Sub-arcminute localization of 13 repeating fast radio bursts detected by CHIME/FRB

Daniele Michilli, Mohit Bhardwaj, Charanjot Brar +23

We report on improved sky localizations of thirteen repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) discovered by CHIME/FRB via the use of interferometric techniques on channelized voltages fro…

Flux Calibration of CHIME/FRB Intensity Data

Bridget C. Andersen, Chitrang Patel, Charanjot Brar +11

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright radio transients of micro-to-millisecond duration and unknown extragalactic origin. Central to the mystery of FRBs are their extremely high char…

Localizing FRBs through VLBI with the Algonquin Radio Observatory 10-m Telescope

Tomas Cassanelli, Calvin Leung, Mubdi Rahman +38

The CHIME/FRB experiment has detected thousands of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) due to its sensitivity and wide field of view; however, its low angular resolution prevents it from loca…

Radio Non-Detection of the SGR 1806-20 Giant Flare and Implications for Fast Radio Bursts

Shriharsh P. Tendulkar, Victoria M. Kaspi, Chitrang Patel

We analyse archival data from the Parkes radio telescope which was observing a location 35.6 away from SGR 1806-20 during its giant -ray flare of 2004 December 27. We s…

Fast Radio Burst Morphology in the First CHIME/FRB Catalog

Ziggy Pleunis, Deborah C. Good, Victoria M. Kaspi +29

We present a synthesis of fast radio burst (FRB) morphology (the change in flux as a function of time and frequency) as detected in the 400-800 MHz octave by the FRB project on the…
