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…
Overview of the Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio Transient Detector (CHORD) Project
The CHORD Collaboration, Kevin Bandura, Leonid Belostotski +49
The Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio-transient Detector (CHORD) is a next-generation wideband radio interferometer currently being constructed and commissioned at the Domini…
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…
Multimodal Transformer Based Generic Mixture Density Network for Scattering Timescale Estimation of Fast Radio Bursts
Bikash Kharel, Emmanuel Fonseca, Srinjoy Das +5
The discovery rate of fast radio bursts (FRBs) continues to increase with the advent of new radio facilities and yet extracting their astrophysical parameters such as scattering ti…
Discovery of 30 Repeating Fast Radio Burst Sources and Uniform Population Statistics of 80 Repeating Sources from CHIME/FRB
Amanda M. Cook, Kaitlyn Shin, Ziggy Pleunis +44
We present 30 newly discovered repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources from the second catalog of bursts detected by the FRB backend on the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Exp…
