FRB 121102 Bursts Show Complex Time-Frequency Structure

J. W. T. Hessels, L. G. Spitler, A. D. Seymour +23

FRB 121102 is the only known repeating fast radio burst source. Here we analyze a wide-frequency-range (1-8 GHz) sample of high-signal-to-noise, coherently dedispersed bursts detec…

One or several populations of fast radio burst sources?

M. Caleb, L. G. Spitler, B. W. Stappers

To date, one repeating and many apparently non-repeating fast radio bursts have been detected. This dichotomy has driven discussions about whether fast radio bursts stem from a sin…

Constraining very-high-energy and optical emission from FRB 121102 with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +155

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright flashes observed typically at GHz frequencies with millisecond duration, whose origin is likely extragalactic. Their nature remains mysterious,…

Detection of Bursts from FRB 121102 with the Effelsberg 100-m Radio Telescope at 5 GHz and the Role of Scintillation

Laura G Spitler, W Herrmann, Geoffrey C Bower +8

FRB 121102, the only repeating fast radio burst (FRB) known to date, was discovered at 1.4 GHz and shortly after the discovery of its repeating nature, detected up to 2.4 GHz. Here…

Highest-frequency detection of FRB 121102 at 4-8 GHz using the Breakthrough Listen Digital Backend at the Green Bank Telescope

V. Gajjar, A. P. V. Siemion, D. C. Price +28

We report the first detections of the repeating fast radio burst source FRB 121102 above 5.2 GHz. Observations were performed using the 48 GHz receiver of the Robert C. Byrd Gre…

An extreme magneto-ionic environment associated with the fast radio burst source FRB 121102

D. Michilli, A. Seymour, J. W. T. Hessels +31

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration, extragalactic radio flashes of unknown physical origin. FRB 121102, the only known repeating FRB source, has been localized to a…
