Correlated Signatures of Plasma Lensing in Fast Radio Bursts

Paz Beniamini, Pawan Kumar

Plasma lensing has been proposed to explain narrow spectra, multiple burst copies, frequency drifts, interference fringes, and polarization changes in fast radio bursts (FRBs). Bec…

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…

Constraining the near-source relativistic wind medium using Fast Radio Burst circular polarization data

Om Gupta, Pawan Kumar, Paz Beniamini

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) exhibit diverse spectro-temporal characteristics, which can probe vital propagation and source physics via Stokes polarimetry. We investigate whether the c…

The kinetic-energy bottleneck in Fast Radio Burst models

Paz Beniamini, Pawan Kumar

Most Fast Radio Burst (FRB) models invoke a two-step process in which energy released by the central engine is converted into particle kinetic energy and only subsequently radiated…

Can repeating and non-repeating FRBs be drawn from the same population?

Paz Beniamini, Pawan Kumar

Do all Fast Radio Burst (FRB) sources repeat? We present evidence that FRB sources follow a Zipf-like distribution, in which the number density of sources is approximately inversel…

The Cosmic Evolution of Fast Radio Bursts Inferred from the CHIME/FRB Baseband Catalog 1

Om Gupta, Paz Beniamini, Pawan Kumar +1

Redshift and luminosity distributions are essential for understanding the cosmic evolution of extragalactic objects and phenomena, such as galaxies, gamma-ray bursts, and fast radi…

The role of magnetic and rotation axis alignment in driving fast radio burst phenomenology

Paz Beniamini, Pawan Kumar

We propose a scenario that can describe a broad range of FRB phenomenology, from non-repeating bursts to highly prolific repeaters. Coherent radio waves in these bursts are produce…

Magnetospheric origin of a fast radio burst constrained using scintillation

Kenzie Nimmo, Ziggy Pleunis, Paz Beniamini +26

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are micro-to-millisecond duration radio transients that originate mostly from extragalactic distances. The emission mechanism responsible for these high lu…
