Detection of ultra-fast radio bursts from FRB 20121102A

The repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20121102A emits ultra-FRBs that last for only microseconds. These bursts are thousands of times shorter than typical for such astronomical radio flashes and indicate that there is a population of FRBs that has been missed previously.

A link between repeating and non-repeating fast radio bursts through their energy distributions

A hyperactive fast radio burst source has been observed for thousands of hours using relatively small telescopes. The energy distribution of the brightest bursts detected suggests a possible link between repeating and apparently non-repeating burst sources.

Burst timescales and luminosities as links between young pulsars and fast radio bursts

The range of timescales and luminosities measured from the nearby fast radio burst FRB 20200120E observationally connects these extreme extragalactic transients with studies of Galactic neutron stars.

A repeating fast radio burst source in a globular cluster

The fast radio burst FRB 20200120E is shown to originate from a globular cluster in the galaxy M81, and may be a collapsed white dwarf or a merged compact binary star system.
