FRB 20210601A: Extreme Temporal Clustering in a Repeating Fast Radio Burst Source as Evidence for a Hidden Class of Episodic Repeaters
Ryan Mckinven, Amanda M. Cook, Alice P. Curtin +29
Population studies of fast radio burst (FRB) repetition typically model sources using a single distribution of steady, time-averaged burst rates, yet individual sources show signif…
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…
Probing the Metallicity Dependence of Fast Radio Burst Progenitors with CHIME/FRB Outrigger Dwarf Host Galaxies
Y. Dong, W. Fong, K. Nimmo +24
Using the fast radio bursts (FRBs) localized with the CHIME/FRB Outriggers between February and October 2025, we conduct a systematic search for dwarf host galaxies. We identify an…
The CHIME/FRB Outriggers: Commissioning the Hat Creek Outrigger and an Updated Calibration Scheme for Mitigating RFI
Mattias Lazda, Nina V. Gusinskaia, Gurman Sachdeva +25
This work presents commissioning of the Hat Creek Outrigger (HCO), a dual-polarization 256-element radio interferometer that is part of the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Expe…
Discovery of an Extremely Luminous Sporadic Radio Pulsar
Fengqiu Adam Dong, Robert Main, Jackson D. Taylor +25
We have discovered PSR J2108+5055, an extremely luminous but sporadic mode-changing rotating radio transient (RRAT), with a period of 0.495 s using the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity…
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…
Rapid Response Triggering for Radio Transients with the SKA Observatory
G. E. Anderson, S. I. Chastain, A. P. Curtin +10
Rapid-response triggering is when a telescope is able to automatically respond to an external or internal astronomical transient alert, causing it to rapidly repoint at that positi…
The Astrophysics of Fast Radio Bursts
Alice P. Curtin, Marcin Gawroński, Jason Hessels +11
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide a glimpse of high-energy astrophysical phenomena in other galaxies. They point the way to extreme conditions that are currently undetectable by any…
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…
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…
Radio Monitoring Campaign of Active Repeater FRB 20220912A with CHIME
Thomas C. Abbott, Aaron B. Pearlman, Victoria M. Kaspi +20
FRB 20220912A is a highly active repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source, discovered by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) using its real-time FRB detection…
A steadily declining dispersion measure for the repeating fast radio burst FRB 20220529A: Evidence for an FRB engine embedded in an expanding supernova remnant
Ayush Pandhi, Kenzie Nimmo, Shion Andrew +29
We present the discovery and subsequent 3.2 year monitoring campaign of the repeating fast radio burst FRB 20220529A with CHIME/FRB. We observe a gradual dispersion measure (DM) de…
Probing the maximum energy of fast radio bursts using thousands of sources from the Second CHIME/FRB Catalog
Vishwangi Shah, Jason W. T. Hessels, Victoria M. Kaspi +25
Quantifying the maximum energy of fast radio bursts (FRBs) can provide stringent constraints on their emission mechanisms and progenitor models. However, the most energetic bursts…
One Attempt at Building an Inclusive & Accessible Hybrid Astronomy Conference: FRB 2025
Alice P. Curtin, Reshma Anna-Thomas, Amanda M. Cook +6
The rapid expansion of the Fast Radio Burst (FRB) field has been accompanied by a simultaneous growth of FRB conferences. While these meetings are essential for interacting with ot…
The Second CHIME/FRB Catalog of Fast Radio Bursts
FRB Collaboration, Thomas Abbott, Bridget C. Andersen +71
We present a catalog of 4539 fast radio bursts (FRBs) observed with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) telescope between 25 July 2018 and 15 September 2023.…
