Astronomers have traced two mysterious fast radio bursts from space to wildly different places, which suggests the phenomenon ...
Astronomers have observed over a thousand of them to date; some come from sources that repeatedly emit FRBs, while others ...
Instead of finding the radio burst in a region of young stars, researchers traced its origin to the outskirts of a “dead” ...
For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical ...
Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to produce these types of signals.
Large stars have cosmically short lifetimes, so the fact that this FRB occurred in an old, long-dead galaxy means that the ...
In February 2024, scientists on Earth detected a powerful radio blast from outer space. Seeking to discover where it had come ...
Scintillation measurements show that FRB 20221022A originated from the highly magnetized region around a neutron star, challenging existing models of conditions there ...
Astronomers have traced a mysterious fast radio burst to an unexpected place — an ancient, massive galaxy far removed from ...
Fast radio bursts are mysterious and brief flashes of radio emissions that were thought to be produced by magnetars, highly magnetized rotating neutron stars. Yet magnetars appear primarily in young ...
Unprecedented discovery of fast radio bursts challenges existing theories. Astronomers detect repeated signals from an ...
For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical galaxy -- an unprecedented home for a phenomenon previously associated with ...
