A spatially resolved view of Fast Radio Burst host metallicities with Integral-field Spectroscopy
Sunil Simha, Hsiao-Wen Chen, Wen-fai Fong +15
Magnetar sources are the leading theory for Fast Radio Burst (FRB) progenitors. If magnetars are indeed the dominant sources, we may thus expect any metallicity preference for magn…

Detection of Partial Coherence due to Multipath Propagation for FRB 20220413B with CHIME/FRB
Zarif Kader, Evan Davies-Velie, Matt Dobbs +7
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a millisecond-long transient phenomenon that propagate across extragalactic distances and are effectively a point source. Radio wave propagation…
A Spatial Gap in the Sky Distribution of Fast Radio Burst Detections Coinciding with Galactic Plasma Overdensities

We analyze the positional and morphological properties of about 3600 unique fast radio burst (FRB) sources reported in the second FRB catalog generated by the Canadian Hydrogen Int…
Constraining the Faint-End Slope of the FRB Energy Function Using CHIME/FRB Catalog-1 and Local Volume Galaxies
Mohit Bhardwaj, Victoria M. Kaspi, K. W. Masui +3
Despite hundreds of detected fast radio bursts (FRBs), the faint-end slope () of their energy distribution remains poorly constrained, hindering understanding of whether bright,…
