One or several populations of fast radio burst sources?
arXiv:1811.00360 · doi:10.1038/s41550-018-0612-z
Abstract
To date, one repeating and many apparently non-repeating fast radio bursts have been detected. This dichotomy has driven discussions about whether fast radio bursts stem from a single population of sources or two or more different populations. Here we present the arguments for and against.
