Localisation and host galaxy identification of new Fast Radio Bursts with MeerKAT
Inés Pastor-Marazuela, Alexa C. Gordon, Ben Stappers +18
Accurately localising fast radio bursts (FRBs) is essential for understanding their birth environments and for their use as cosmological probes. Recent advances in radio interferom…
A fast radio burst from the first 3 billion years of the Universe
Manisha Caleb, Themiya Nanayakkara, Benjamin Stappers +25
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are enigmatic millisecond-duration signals which encode otherwise unattainable information on the plasma which permeates our Universe, providing insights i…
A Search for Low-frequency Radio Pulses from Long Gamma-ray Bursts with the Murchison Widefield Array
Fan Xu, G. E. Anderson, Jun Tian +10
It has been proposed that coherent radio emission could be emitted during or shortly following a gamma-ray burst (GRB). Here we present a low-frequency ( MHz) search for r…
Discovery of 26 new Galactic radio transients by MeerTRAP
James Dennis Turner, Ben W. Stappers, Jun Tian +10
Radio searches for single pulses provide the opportunity to discover one-off events, fast transients and some pulsars that might otherwise be missed by conventional periodicity sea…
