A bright millisecond-duration radio burst from a Galactic magnetar

FRB Collaboration, B. C. Andersen, K. M. Bandura +68

Magnetars are highly magnetized young neutron stars that occasionally produce enormous bursts and flares of X-rays and gamma-rays. Of the approximately thirty magnetars currently k…

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…

A series of unfortunate events: CHIME/FRB misclassification of a Galactic pulsar as a periodic fast radio burst

FRB Collaboration

In 2022, the CHIME/FRB Collaboration reported the detection of FRB 20191221A, an apparent fast radio burst exhibiting a significant periodicity of 217 ms. Recently, this event has…

The CHIME Fast Radio Burst Project: System Overview

FRB Collaboration, M. Amiri, K. Bandura +49

The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a novel transit radio telescope operating across the 400-800-MHz band. CHIME is comprised of four 20-m x 100-m semi-cy…

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…

FRB 20250316A: A Brilliant and Nearby One-Off Fast Radio Burst Localized to 13 parsec Precision

FRB Collaboration, Thomas C. Abbott, Daniel Amouyal +83

Precise localizations of a small number of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have enabled multiwavelength follow-up observations rev…

A Catalog of Local Universe Fast Radio Bursts from CHIME/FRB and the KKO Outrigger

FRB Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Daniel Amouyal +62

We present the first catalog of fast radio burst (FRB) host galaxies from CHIME/FRB Outriggers, selected uniformly in the radio and the optical by localizing 81 new bursts to 2'' x…

Periodic activity from a fast radio burst source

FRB Collaboration, M. Amiri, B. C. Andersen +70

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright, millisecond-duration radio transients originating from extragalactic distances. Their origin is unknown. Some FRB sources emit repeat bursts, r…

A Second Source of Repeating Fast Radio Bursts

FRB Collaboration, M. Amiri, K. Bandura +57

The discovery of a repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) source, FRB 121102, eliminated models involving cataclysmic events for this source. No other repeating FRB has yet been detected…
