Depolarization Induced by Rapid Polarization Angle Swings: A Common Feature of Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts?
Yu-Chen Huang, Jie-Shuang Wang, Song-Bo Zhang +1
The paper proposes that a steep swing in polarization angle leads to reduced linear polarization in both pulsars and fast radio bursts, suggesting an anti‑correlation between polar…
The FRB--Galaxy Overdensity Cross-Correlation Statistic in Dispersion Space
Ryan Raikman, Haochen Wang, Kiyoshi Masui +1
The paper introduces a new angular cross‑power spectrum statistic that correlates FRB dispersion measures with galaxy density, showing it is more informative than previous methods…
Testing the Isotropy of the Universe with the CHIME/FRB Catalog I
Jun-Yi Shen, Yuan-Chuan Zou
The paper examines whether the distribution of 536 fast radio bursts from the CHIME/FRB catalog is isotropic across the sky, using two-point angular correlation and sigma‑map analy…
Anderson self-localization of light in pair plasmas
Maxim Lyutikov, Victor Gurarie
The paper shows that weakly nonlinear electromagnetic waves in a pair plasma can create random density fluctuations that cause Anderson self‑localization of the light, leading to t…
Temporal Memory in Repeating Fast Radio Bursts: Epsilon-Machine Reconstruction of Causal Structure in Burst Timing
Tom Kimpson, Joseph O'Leary
The study applies ε‑machine reconstruction to the burst arrival times of repeating fast radio bursts, showing that two repeaters exhibit about one bit of temporal memory while a th…
Semi-supervised morphological classification of fast radio bursts from the second CHIME/FRB catalogue
Bo Lin Fan, Renée Hložek, Antonio Herrera Martin
The paper introduces a convolutional autoencoder–based unsupervised classifier to group fast radio bursts from the CHIME/FRB catalogue into morphological classes and to predict rep…
