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…
Searching for Historical Extragalactic Optical Transients Associated with Fast Radio Bursts
Y. Dong, C. D. Kilpatrick, W. Fong +24
We present a systematic search for past supernovae (SNe) and other historical optical transients at the positions of fast radio burst (FRB) sources to test FRB progenitor systems.…
Sporadic radio pulses from a white dwarf binary at the orbital period
I. de Ruiter, K. M. Rajwade, C. G. Bassa +14
Recent observations have revealed rare, previously unknown flashes of cosmic radio waves lasting from milliseconds to minutes, and with periodicity of minutes to an hour. These tra…
Mapping the Spatial Distribution of Fast Radio Bursts within their Host Galaxies
Alexa C. Gordon, Wen-fai Fong, Adam T. Deller +23
We present deep optical and near-infrared observations of the host galaxies of 34 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Commensal Real-time ASKAP Fast Transient (CRAFT) survey o…
James Webb Space Telescope Observations of the Nearby and Precisely-Localized FRB 20250316A: A Potential Near-IR Counterpart and Implications for the Progenitors of Fast Radio Bursts
Peter K. Blanchard, Edo Berger, Shion E. Andrew +23
We present deep James Webb Space Telescope near-infrared imaging to search for a quiescent or transient counterpart to FRB 20250316A, which was precisely localized with the CHIME/F…
FRB 20250316A: A Brilliant and Nearby One-Off Fast Radio Burst Localized to 13 parsec Precision
FRB Collaboration, Thomas C. Abbott, Daniel Amouyal +83
Precise localizations of a small number of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have enabled multiwavelength follow-up observations rev…
