Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most puzzling astronomical phenomena. These brief yet intense bursts of radio waves, ...

Fast radio bursts, strong pulses of energy detected in radio-wave frequencies, may be a common phenomenon in the cosmos, but ...

A research team led by McGill identifies neutron stars as the likely source of fast radio bursts, one of the universe's most ...

Scientists have traced a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) to the edge of an ancient galaxy where star formation has drastically dropped. Researchers are struggling to explain what caused it.

Small stars that are far away tend to be faint and hard to see. De Ruiter and her colleagues used the Multiple Mirror ...

A mysterious and powerful burst of radio waves reached Earth after traveling through space for 8 billion years dubbed FRB ...

FRB 20221022A is a 2.5 millisecond burst from a galaxy about 200 million light-years away. It was detected on 22 October 2022 by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst ...

Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech Astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) back to its origin, and what they've found is unlike any other FRB host previously discovered. The signal appears to have ...

The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mappi... Researchers have pinpointed the origin of fast radio burst FRB 20221022A to within 10,000 kilometres of a neutron star. Using scintillation analysis ...

It started in 2001, a brilliant burst of light breached the skies ... Astronomers call these powerful flashes Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). Since 2001, about 30 have been identified.

But de Ruiter didn’t think the star would be able to produce radio waves by itself. Something else had to be instigating it. The pulses differed from fast radio bursts, which are incredibly ...

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most puzzling ... One significant breakthrough came in 2020 when astronomers observed a weaker burst from a magnetar within the Milky Way, confirming at ...
