frb-voe: A Real-time Virtual Observatory Event Alert Service for Fast Radio Bursts

Thomas C. Abbott, Andrew V. Zwaniga, Charanjot Brar +12

We present frb-voe, a publicly available software package that enables radio observatories to broadcast fast radio burst (FRB) alerts to subscribers through low-latency virtual obs…

CHIME/FRB Discovery of 25 Repeating Fast Radio Burst Sources

FRB Collaboration, Bridget C. Andersen, Kevin Bandura +56

We present the discovery of 25 new repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources found among CHIME/FRB events detected between 2019 September 30 and 2021 May 1. The sources were found u…

Power-law distribution and scale-invariant structure from the first CHIME/FRB Fast Radio Burst catalog

Zi-Han Wang, Yu Sang, Xue Zhang

We study the statistical property of fast radio bursts (FRBs) based on a selected sample of 190 one-off FRBs in the first CHIME/FRB catalog. Three power law models are used in the…

A sudden period of high activity from repeating Fast Radio Burst 20201124A

Adam E. Lanman, Bridget C. Andersen, Pragya Chawla +30

The repeating FRB 20201124A was first discovered by CHIME/FRB in November of 2020, after which it was seen to repeat a few times over several months. It entered a period of high ac…

Sub-second periodicity in a fast radio burst

FRB Collaboration, Bridget C. Andersen, Kevin Bandura +59

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration flashes of radio waves that are visible at distances of billions of light-years. The nature of their progenitors and their emissio…

No Evidence for Galactic Latitude Dependence of the Fast Radio Burst Sky Distribution

A. Josephy, P. Chawla, A. P. Curtin +23

We investigate whether the sky rate of Fast Radio Bursts depends on Galactic latitude using the first catalog of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensit…

CHIME/FRB Catalog 1 results: statistical cross-correlations with large-scale structure

Masoud Rafiei-Ravandi, Kendrick M. Smith, Dongzi Li +38

The CHIME/FRB Project has recently released its first catalog of fast radio bursts (FRBs), containing 492 unique sources. We present results from angular cross-correlations of CHIM…

The First CHIME/FRB Fast Radio Burst Catalog

FRB Collaboration, Mandana Amiri, Bridget C. Andersen +73

We present a catalog of 536 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) Project between 400 and 800 MHz fro…

A nearby repeating fast radio burst in the direction of M81

M. Bhardwaj, B. M. Gaensler, V. M. Kaspi +23

We report on the discovery of FRB 20200120E, a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) with low dispersion measure (DM), detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CH…

A bright millisecond-duration radio burst from a Galactic magnetar

FRB Collaboration, B. C. Andersen, K. M. Bandura +68

Magnetars are highly magnetized young neutron stars that occasionally produce enormous bursts and flares of X-rays and gamma-rays. Of the approximately thirty magnetars currently k…

Nine New Repeating Fast Radio Burst Sources from CHIME/FRB

E. Fonseca, B. C. Andersen, M. Bhardwaj +38

We report on the discovery and analysis of bursts from nine new repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources found using the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) tele…

A repeating fast radio burst source localised to a nearby spiral galaxy

B. Marcote, K. Nimmo, J. W. T. Hessels +51

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief, bright, extragalactic radio flashes. Their physical origin remains unknown, but dozens of possible models have been postulated. Some FRB sources…

Periodic activity from a fast radio burst source

FRB Collaboration, M. Amiri, B. C. Andersen +70

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright, millisecond-duration radio transients originating from extragalactic distances. Their origin is unknown. Some FRB sources emit repeat bursts, r…
