Preferential Occurrence of Fast Radio Bursts in Massive Star-Forming Galaxies
Kritti Sharma, Vikram Ravi, Liam Connor +24
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration events detected from beyond the Milky Way. FRB emission characteristics favor highly magnetized neutron stars, or magnetars, as th…
