A comparison between repeating bursts of FRB 121102 and giant pulses from Crab pulsar and its applications

Fen Lyu, Yan-Zhi Meng, Zhen-Fan Tang +6

There are some similarities between bursts of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) and giant pulses (GPs) of pulsars. To explore possible relations between them, we study the cumulat…

On the energy and redshift distributions of fast radio bursts

Rachel C. Zhang, Bing Zhang, Ye Li +1

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration radio transients from cosmological distances. Their isotropic energies follow a power-law distribution with a possible exponential…

GRB 200415A: A Short Gamma-Ray Burst from a Magnetar Giant Flare?

Jun Yang, Vikas Chand, Bin-Bin Zhang +16

The giant flares of soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) have long been proposed to contribute to at least a subsample of the observed short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this paper, we p…

A Comparative Study of Long and Short GRBs. II. A Multi-wavelength Method to distinguish Type II (massive star) and Type I (compact star) GRBs

Ye Li, Bing Zhang, Qiang Yuan

Gamma Ray Burst (GRBs) are empirically classified as long-duration GRBs (LGRBs, 2s) and short-duration GRBs (SGRBs, 2s). Physically they can be grouped into two distinct pr…

A comparative study of host galaxy properties between Fast Radio Bursts and stellar transients

Ye Li, Bing Zhang

Recent arcsecond localizations of Fast Radio Bursts and identifications of their host galaxies confirmed their extragalactic origin.While FRB 121102 resides in the bright region of…
