Evidence for a Delayed Progenitor Population for CHIME non-repeating Fast Radio Bursts using a Self-Consistent Forward and Backward Inference Framework
Zi-Liang Zhang, Bing Zhang
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are luminous extragalactic radio transients whose physical origins remain uncertain. Using over one thousand non-repeating events from CHIME/FRB Catalog 2,…
Probing the Dispersion and Rotation Measure Contributions from Supernova Remnants in Fast Radio Burst Source Environments with 1D SNR Simulation
Zhao Joseph Zhang, Gaku Kawashima, Shiu-Hang Lee +3
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide a sensitive probe of ionized baryons through their dispersion measure (DM). In addition to slowly evolving cosmological terms, at least two repeate…
Probing the Cosmic Baryon Distribution and the Impact of Active Galactic Nuclei Feedback with Fast Radio Bursts in CROCODILE Simulation
Zhao Joseph Zhang, Kentaro Nagamine, Yuri Oku +6
We investigate the Missing Baryon problem using Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) to trace cosmic baryons. Our CROCODILE simulations, performed with the GADGET3/4-OSAKA smoothed particle hy…
Formation Channels of Magnetars
Rui-Chong Hu, Bing Zhang
The formation channels of magnetars remain an open question. Although core collapse supernovae of isolated massive stars are important, binary interactions -- such as tidal interac…
Magnetars in Binaries as the Engine of Actively Repeating Fast Radio Bursts
Bing Zhang, Rui-Chong Hu
The association between FRB 20200428D and the Galactic magnetar SGR J1935+2154 makes magnetars the leading engine of cosmological fast radio bursts (FRBs). However, there is a list…
