"This new fast radio burst shows us that just when you think you understand an astrophysical phenomenon, the universe turns ...

With their extremely strong magnetic fields, magnetars have long been considered the prime culprit capable of producing the powerful bursts of energy known as fast radio bursts. The recent burst ...

Fast radio bursts, strong pulses of energy detected in radio-wave frequencies, may be a common phenomenon in the cosmos, but their enigmatic origins are something astronomers are only beginning to ...

The discovery supports the idea that there are more ways to produce such flares, called fast radio bursts, than originally thought. Fast radio bursts, or FRBs, are millisecond-long eruptions of ...

With their extremely strong magnetic fields, magnetars have long been considered the prime culprit capable of producing the powerful bursts of energy known as fast radio bursts. The recent burst, ...

Vishwangi Shah, an astronomer at McGill University and a study co-author, highlighted the rarity of the event, noting that ...

Fresh research has indicated that astronomers have discovered fast radio bursts (FRBs) emanating from a far-distant ‘dead’ galaxy that should not contain the energy to produce these signals.

Scientists discovered a new fast radio burst named FRB 20240209A. This FRB originated from an old galaxy 11.3 billion years old, challenging previous ...

Astronomers have pinpointed an FRB outside a dead galaxy for the first time, challenging existing models that link FRBs to ...

The CRACO radio telescope system processes a massive amount of data in real-time, so it can detect fast radio bursts and sporadic neutron stars with very high efficiency.

Astronomers have traced the origin of a fast radio burst (FRB) to the edge of an ancient galaxy — suggesting that these mysterious, millisecond-long flashes of energy are even weirder than ...
