The Astrophysics of Fast Radio Bursts
Alice P. Curtin, Marcin GawroÅski, 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…
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…
A milliarcsecond localization associates FRB 20190417A with a compact persistent radio source and an extreme magneto-ionic environment
Alexandra M. Moroianu, Shivani Bhandari, Maria R. Drout +38
We report the milliarcsecond localization of a high (1379 pc/cc) dispersion measure (DM) repeating fast radio burst, FRB 20190417A. Combining European VLBI Network detections of fi…
Revisiting FRB 20121102A: milliarcsecond localisation and a decreasing dispersion measure
M. P. Snelders, J. W. T. Hessels, J. Huang +27
FRB 20121102A is the original repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source and also the first to be localised to milliarcsecond precision using very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI).…
FRB 20250316A: A Brilliant and Nearby One-Off Fast Radio Burst Localized to 13 parsec Precision
FRB Collaboration, Thomas C. Abbott, Daniel Amouyal +83
Precise localizations of a small number of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have enabled multiwavelength follow-up observations rev…
