The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project: VI. The INCART public database
L. Bruno, G. Bernardi, M. Pilia +7
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright (Jansky-level) and short-duration ( ms) flashes of extragalactic origin. Observations of single events have now been complemented by lar…
A magnetar outburst with atypical evolution: the case of Swift J1555.2-5402
A. Borghese, F. Coti Zelati, M. Imbrogno +12
The magnetar Swift J1555.2-5402 was discovered in outburst on 2021 June 3 by the Burst Alert Telescope on board the Swift satellite. Early X-ray follow-up revealed a spin period P~…
A milliarcsecond localization associates FRB 20190417A with a compact persistent radio source and an extreme magneto-ionic environment
Alexandra M. Moroianu, Shivani Bhandari, Maria R. Drout +38
We report the milliarcsecond localization of a high (1379 pc/cc) dispersion measure (DM) repeating fast radio burst, FRB 20190417A. Combining European VLBI Network detections of fi…
The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project: V. Search for transient radio emission from Galactic magnetars
A. Geminardi, P. Esposito, G. Bernardi +21
Context. The radio emission from magnetars is poorly understood and poorly characterized observationally, in particular for what concerns single pulses and sporadic events. The int…
The First High Frequency Technosignature Search Survey with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
Lorenzo Manunza, Alice Vendrame, Luca Pizzuto +30
The quest for radio signals from technologically-advanced extraterrestrial intelligence has traditionally concentrated on the vicinity of 1.4 GHz. In this paper, we extend the sear…
Eighteen new fast radio bursts in the High Time Resolution Universe survey
M. Trudu, A. Possenti, M. Pilia +16
Current observational evidence reveals that fast radio bursts (FRBs) exhibit bandwidths ranging from a few dozen MHz to several GHz. Traditional FRB searches primarily employ match…
The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project IV. Multi-wavelength study of the actively repeating FRB 20220912A
D. Pelliciari, G. Bernardi, M. Pilia +26
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are energetic, millisecond-duration radio pulses observed at extragalactic distances and whose origins are still a subject of heated debate. A fraction of…
Long-term study of the 2020 magnetar-like outburst of the young pulsar PSRJ1846-0258 in Kes 75
Rajath Sathyaprakash, Nanda Rea, Francesco Coti Zelati +14
Magnetar-like activity has been observed in a large variety of neutron stars. PSR J1846-0258 is a young 327 ms radio-quiet pulsar with a large rotational power ($\sim 8 \times 10^{…
Milliarcsecond Localisation of the Hyperactive Repeating FRB 20220912A
Danté M. Hewitt, Shivani Bhandari, Benito Marcote +23
We present very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of the hyperactive repeating FRB 20220912A using the European VLBI Network (EVN) with an EVN-Lite setup. We detecte…
Simultaneous and panchromatic observations of the Fast Radio Burst FRB 20180916B
M. Trudu, M. Pilia, L. Nicastro +47
Aims. Fast Radio Bursts are bright radio transients whose origin has not yet explained. The search for a multi-wavelength counterpart of those events can put a tight constrain on t…
The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project -- III. The FRB-magnetar connection in a sample of nearby galaxies
Davide Pelliciari, Gianni Bernardi, Maura Pilia +18
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond radio transients observed at cosmological distances. The nature of their progenitors is still a matter of debate, although magnetars are in…
The first 7 months of the 2020 X-ray outburst of the magnetar SGR J1935+2154
Alice Borghese, Francesco Coti Zelati, Gian Luca Israel +10
The magnetar SGR J1935+2154 underwent a new active episode on 2020 April 27-28, when a forest of hundreds of X-ray bursts and a large enhancement of the persistent flux were detect…
The Northern Cross Fast Radio Burst project - II. Monitoring of repeating FRB 20180916B, 20181030A, 20200120E and 20201124A
M. Trudu, M. Pilia, G. Bernardi +22
In this work we report the results of a nineteen-month Fast Radio Burst observational campaign carried out with the North-South arm of the Medicina Northern Cross radio telescope a…
The Fast Radio Burst FRB 20201124A in a star forming region: constraints to the progenitor and multiwavelength counterparts
L. Piro, G. Bruni, E. Troja +16
We present the results of a multiwavelength campaign of FRB 20201124A, the third closest repeating fast radio burst recently localized in a nearby (z=0.0978) galaxy. Deep VLA obser…
The lowest frequency Fast Radio Bursts: Sardinia Radio Telescope detection of the periodic FRB 180916 at 328 MHz
M. Pilia, M. Burgay, A. Possenti +35
We report on the lowest-frequency detection to date of three bursts from the fast radio burst FRB 180916, observed at 328 MHz with the Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT). The SRT obser…
