Limits on Fast Radio Burst–like Counterparts to Gamma-Ray Bursts Using CHIME/FRB

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a class of highly energetic, mostly extragalactic radio transients lasting for ∼milliseconds. While over 600 FRBs have been published so far, their origins are presently unclear, with some theories for extragalactic FRBs ...

Radio Astronomical Tools for the Study of Solar Energetic Particles II.Time-Extended Acceleration at Subrelativistic and Relativistic Energies

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Solar energetic particle (SEP) events are commonly separated in two categories: numerous “impulsive” events of relatively short duration, and a few “gradual” events, where SEP-intensities may stay enhanced over several days at energies up to several tens

"Slow" radio bursts from galactic magnetars?

open access: yes, 2021
Recently, one fast radio burst (FRB), FRB 200428, was detected from the Galactic magnetar soft gamma-ray repeater (SGR) J1935+2154 during one X-ray burst. This suggests that magnetars can make FRBs.

Galactic and cosmological fast radio bursts as scaled-up solar radio bursts [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright milliseconds radio transients with large dispersion measures. Recently, FRB 200428 was detected in temporal coincidence with a hard X-ray flare from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154, which supports that at least some FRBs are from magnetar activity.

The Statistical Polarization Properties of Coherent Curvature Radiation by Bunches: Application to Fast Radio Burst Repeaters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic radio transients with a millisecond duration and an extremely high brightness temperature. Very recently, some highly circularly polarized bursts were found in a repeater, FRB 20201124A. The significant circular

The host galaxy of a fast radio burst [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2016
In recent years, millisecond-duration radio signals originating in distant galaxies appear to have been discovered in the so-called fast radio bursts. These signals are dispersed according to a precise physical law and this dispersion is a key observable quantity, which, in tandem with a redshift measurement, can be used for fundamental physical ...

HIGH-FREQUENCY CUTOFF IN TYPE III BURSTS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2016
In this article we report about a group of solar bursts with high-frequency cutoff, observed on 19 August of 2012 near 8:23 UT, simultaneously by three different radio telescopes: the Ukrainian decameter radio telescope (8-33 MHz), the French Nançay ...

ON ASSOCIATING FAST RADIO BURSTS WITH AFTERGLOWS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT A radio source that faded over six days, with a redshift of z ≈ 0.5 host, has been identified by Keane et al. as the transient afterglow to a fast radio burst (FRB 150418). We report follow-up radio and optical observations of the afterglow candidate and find a source that is consistent with an active galactic nucleus.

Are There Multiple Populations of Fast Radio Bursts? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018
Abstract The repeating FRB 121102 (the “repeater”) shows repetitive bursting activities and was localized in a host galaxy at z = 0.193. On the other hand, despite dozens of hours of telescope time spent on follow-up observations, no other fast radio bursts (FRBs) have been observed to repeat.

The Multiwavelength Counterparts of Fast Radio Bursts [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2020
Abstract The engines that produce extragalactic fast radio bursts (FRBs), and the mechanism by which the emission is generated, remain unknown. Many FRB models predict prompt multiwavelength counterparts, which can be used to refine our knowledge of these fundamentals of the FRB phenomenon. However, several previous targeted searches for
