Two new highly scattered fast radio bursts: evidence for scatter broadening by the circumsource medium
Joscha N. Jahns-Schindler, Keith W. Bannister, Adam T. Deller +17
We found two highly scattered Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) during commissioning of the Commensal Realtime ASKAP Fast Transient COherent (CRACO) backend. FRB 240210D and FRB 240312D hav…
Enhanced Astrometry of the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey: Mid and High Frequency Epochs
Akhil Jaini, Adam T. Deller, Yuanming Wang +3
Accurate radio astrometry is essential for reliable cross-identification of sources across wavelengths, precision localisation of transient events, and the construction of stable a…
The Low-mass Dwarf Host Galaxy of Nonrepeating FRB 20230708A
August R. Muller, Alexa C. Gordon, Stuart D. Ryder +19
We present Very Large Telescope/X-Shooter spectroscopy for the host galaxies of 12 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Australian SKA Pathfinder observed through the ``Fast an…
The ASKAP Variables and Slow Transients (VAST) Extragalactic Survey - Data Release 1
Iris de Ruiter, Dougal Dobie, Tara Murphy +13
The Variables and Slow Transients (VAST) Survey on the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) is designed to systematically explore the dynamic radio sky, detecting sources that vary on…
AT 2024wpp: the most luminous fast-evolving optical transient linked to the merger explosion of a black-hole binary
Jialian Liu, Bao Wang, Xiaofeng Wang +48
Fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) represent one of the most exotic astrophysical transients, exhibiting unusually strong emission across X-ray, optical, and radio wavelengths. T…
A fast radio burst cyclone in technicolour: evidence of plasma lensing
Pavan A. Uttarkar, Ryan M. Shannon, Kelly Gourdji +9
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright, energetic, radio pulses of extragalactic origin. A dichotomy has emerged in the population: some produce repeat bursts, while the majority do n…
