No Strong Evidence for Plasma Lensing in FRB 20240114A

Jiarui Niu, Xiaohui Liu, Nan Xu +33

FRB 20240114A is an extremely active repeating fast radio burst for which plasma lensing has been proposed to explain its burst-rate variations, spectral evolution, and apparently…

Fast radio bursts, magnetars and earthquakes: their "family feud"?

Si-Lu Xu, Yong-Kun Zhang, Pei Wang +24

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration cosmic transients whose origin remains elusive. Competing models invoke either earthquake-like processes or flare-like mechanisms.…

Testing Weak Equivalence Principle with IceCube Event and Blazar

Tian-Cong Wang, Aleksandra Piorkowska - Kurpas, Marek Biesiada +1

Einstein's Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP), the universality of free fall, is a fundamental component of general relativity and other metric theories of gravity. Its validity can…

FAST Polarization Catalog of FRB 20240114A

Tian-Cong Wang, Jun-Shuo Zhang, Xiao-Hui Liu +60

Polarization measurements of fast radio bursts (FRBs) probe the magnetized plasma surrounding their central engines. FRB~20240114A is an exceptionally active repeating source, with…

The magnetar model's energy crisis for a prolific repeating fast radio burst source

Jun-Shuo Zhang, Tian-Cong Wang, Pei Wang +61

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are widely considered to originate from magnetars that power the explosion through releasing magnetic energy. Active repeating FRBs have been seen to produ…

Investigating FRB 20240114A with FAST: Morphological Classification and Drifting Rate Measurements in a Burst-Cluster Framework

Long-Xuan Zhang, Shiyan Tian, Junyi Shen +59

This study investigates the morphological classification and drifting rate measurement of the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20240114A using the Five-hundred-meter Ape…

A comprehensive search for Long and Short Periodic Features from an Extremely Active Cycle of FRB 20240114A

Dengke Zhou, Pei Wang, Jianhua Fang +56

Possible periodic features in fast radio bursts (FRBs) may provide insights into their astrophysical origins. Using extensive observations from the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Sphe…

The flat tail in the burst energy distribution of FRB 20240114A

Yu-Xiang Huang, Jun-Shuo Zhang, Heng Xu +19

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are enigmatic millisecond-duration radio transients of extra-galactic origin, whose underlying mechanisms and progenitors remain poorly understood. FRBs ar…

The EMPI Code for Plasma-Induced Effects on Radio Waves I: Non-Magnetized Media and Applications to Fast Radio Bursts

Nan Xu, He Gao, Yuan-Pei Yang +4

Electromagnetic waves undergo modifications as they propagate through plasma. We present EMPI (ElectroMagnetic-wave Plasma Interaction), a three-dimensional numerical framework des…

Polarization Position Angle Swing and the Rotating Vector Model of Repeating Fast Radio Bursts

Xiaohui Liu, Heng Xu, Jiarui Niu +23

Fast radio bursts (FRBs), typically highly polarized, usually have a nearly constant polarization position angle (PA) during each burst. Some bursts show significant PA variations,…

The Peculiar Precursor of a Gamma-Ray Burst from a Binary Merger Involving a Magnetar

Shuo Xiao, Yan-Qiu Zhang, Zi-Pei Zhu +42

The milestone discovery of GW 170817-GRB 170817A-AT 2017gfo has shown that gravitational wave (GW) could be produced during the merger of neutron star-neutron star/black hole and t…
