Real-time triggering capabilities for Fast Radio Bursts at the MeerKAT telescope
F. Jankowski, M. Berezina, B. W. Stappers +9
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are bright enigmatic radio pulses of roughly millisecond duration that come from extragalactic distances. As part of the MeerTRAP project, we use the MeerK…
High-cadence observations and variable spin behaviour of magnetar Swift J1818.0-1607 after its outburst
David Champion, Ismael Cognard, Marilyn Cruces +17
We report on multi-frequency radio observations of the new magnetar Swift J1818.0-1607, following it for more than one month with high cadence. The observations commenced less than…
Spectro-temporal analysis of a sample of bursts from FRB 121102
Kaustubh Rajwade, Mitchell Mickaliger, Benjamin Stappers +4
FRB~121102 was the first Fast Radio Burst (FRB) that was shown to repeat. Since its discovery in 2012, more than two hundred bursts have been detected from the source. These bursts…
Simultaneous multi-telescope observations of FRB 121102
M. Caleb, B. W. Stappers, T. D. Abbott +29
We present 11 detections of FRB 121102 in ~3 hours of observations during its 'active' period on the 10th of September 2019. The detections were made using the newly deployed MeerT…
Possible periodic activity in the repeating FRB 121102
K. M. Rajwade, M. B. Mickaliger, B. W. Stappers +8
The discovery that at least some Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) repeat has ruled out cataclysmic events as the progenitors of these particular bursts. FRB~121102 is the most well-studied…
Limits on Absorption from a 332-MHz survey for Fast Radio Bursts
K. M. Rajwade, M. B. Mickaliger, B. W. Stappers +4
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are bright, extragalactic radio pulses whose origins are still unknown. Until recently, most FRBs have been detected at frequencies greater than 1 GHz with…
