New clues discovered in quest to unravel astrophysical mystery. Since fast radio bursts (FRBs) were first discovered over a decade ago, scientists have puzzled over…
UNLV astrophysicist Bing Zhang contributes to understanding the physical mechanisms of fast radio bursts in three papers published in Nature. Fast radio bursts, or FRBs…
The fast radio bursts are likely generated by a magnetar, the most magnetic type of star in the universe. Fast radio bursts are extremely bright…
ESA’s Integral helps unravel origin of Fast Radio Bursts A global collaboration of telescopes including ESA’s Integral high-energy space observatory has detected a unique mix…
Assistant professor of physics Laura Newburgh is part of a Canadian-led experiment that has detected the second-known example of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB)…
Recent observations of a mysterious and distant object that emits intermittent bursts of radio waves so bright that they’re visible across the universe provide new…
New research from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics reveals that fast radio bursts should occur over the entire observable universe, with at least one FRB…
A new study from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics suggests that fast radio bursts could be evidence of advanced alien technology. The search for extraterrestrial…
