The MeerTRAP team recently discovered the first repeating fast radio burst (FRB), FRB 20240619D, with the MeerKAT telescope. Despite the MeerKAT discoveries of dozens of apparently one-off FRBs, canonical radio pulsars, and long-period radio sources, this is the first discovery of a clearly repeating FRB source with MeerKAT.
Here is …
more ...We have discovered two fast radio bursts (FRBs) in short succession as part of the ongoing search programme at the Molonglo Observatory Radio Telescope. They are FRB181016 and FRB181017, respectively. We summarise their detection UTCs, their right-ascensions, their declinations (J2000) and the dispersion measures (DMs) that maximise the signal-to-noise ratios …
more ...We have detected a fast radio burst (FRB) as part of the SUPERB project at the Parkes radio telescope. It was discovered on 2018-09-23-04:03:38.06 UTC in the central beam (beam 1) of the 1.4 GHz multi-beam receiver. The FRB has a dispersion measure of 548 pc …
more ...We have detected a new Fast Radio Burst (FRB) in real time at the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Radio Telescope in Australia. In total, that makes it the 6th FRB discovered as part of the UTMOST project. We encourage follow-up observations at all wavelengths. The relevant details can be found in …
more ...We have followed up the very bright fast radio burst FRB180309 with the Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory. The radio observations started less than 7 hours after the event. We also reanalysed 4 hours of archival data of the field in which the burst was reported, taken between 2013 …
