Search for persistent radio emission towards selected localised Fast Radio Burst positions using the MeerKAT Telescope
Thulo Letsele, Lebogang Mfulwane, Christo Venter +2
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration radio pulses originating from cosmological distances, as indicated by their large dispersion measures. While numerous FRBs have no…
Discovery of 30 Galactic radio transient pulsars with MeerTRAP
J. Tian, S. Singh, B. W. Stappers +15
We present the discovery of 30 new Galactic sources from the MeerTRAP project, a commensal fast radio transient search programme using the MeerKAT telescope. These sources were all…
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…
MeerKAT discovery of a hyperactive repeating fast radio burst source
J. Tian, I. Pastor-Marazuela, K. M. Rajwade +17
We present the discovery and localisation of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source from the MeerTRAP project, a commensal fast radio transient search programme using the MeerKA…
Slow and steady: long-term evolution of the 76-second pulsar J09014046
M. C. Bezuidenhout, N. D. R. Bhat, M. Caleb +10
PSR J09014046, a likely radio-loud neutron star with a period of 75.88 seconds, challenges conventional models of neutron star radio emission. Here, we showcase results from 46…
A coherent radio burst from an X-ray neutron star in the Carina Nebula
K. M. Rajwade, J. Tian, G. Younes +10
The neutron star zoo comprises several sub-populations that range from energetic magnetars and thermally emitting X-ray neutron stars to radio-emitting pulsars. Despite studies ove…
Contemporaneous optical-radio observations of a fast radio burst in a close galaxy pair
K. Y. Hanmer, I. Pastor-Marazuela, J. Brink +20
We present the MeerKAT discovery and MeerLICHT contemporaneous optical observations of the Fast Radio Burst (FRB) 20230808F, which was found to have a dispersion measure of $\mathr…
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…
