Discovery of an Extremely Luminous Sporadic Radio Pulsar
Fengqiu Adam Dong, Robert Main, Jackson D. Taylor +25
We have discovered PSR J2108+5055, an extremely luminous but sporadic mode-changing rotating radio transient (RRAT), with a period of 0.495 s using the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity…
Evidence for Enhancement in the Rate of Fast Radio Bursts Toward Galaxy Clusters
Mawson W. Sammons, Airene Ahuja, Matt Dobbs +25
Massive galaxy clusters can introduce gravitational lensing and populations of suppressed star formation member galaxies into the line of sight, potentially changing the distributi…
No Measurable Changes in Radio and X-ray Emission Surrounding Glitches in the Young Pulsar PSR J2229+6114
Wenke Xia, Robert A. Main, Mason Ng +11
We present our first result from an ongoing pulsar glitch monitoring campaign at the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME), in which we analyzed the radio and X-ra…
CHIME/Slow overview and pilot survey: A new backend to search for second-duration radio transients with the CHIME telescope
Sujay Mate, Kevin Luke, Yash Bhusare +23
We present an overview of CHIME/Slow, a real-time transient search backend under development to search for second-duration radio transients using the CHIME telescope, and results o…
Debiasing the Observed Fast Radio Burst Population with the CHIME/FRB Selection Function
Kyle McGregor, Jason W. T. Hessels, Victoria M. Kaspi +26
The recent release of CHIME/FRB Catalog~2 provides the largest sample to date with which to investigate the intrinsic distributions of fast radio bursts (FRBs). Leveraging an expan…
A Decade to Map the Diffuse Universe: FRB-QSO Pairs with HST/COS Spectroscopy
Jessica Werk, Matthew McQuinn, J. Xavier Prochaska +16
Jointly analyzing the sightlines of arcsecond-localized fast radio bursts (FRBs) and UV-bright quasars (QSOs) nearby in projection has the potential to provide strong constraints o…
