Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), astronomers have investigated the emission properties ...

FRBs are sporadic, intense flashes of radio wave energy that can be brighter than entire galaxies. In just thousandths of a ...

Astronomer Calvin Leung was excited last summer to crunch data from a newly commissioned radio telescope to precisely pinpoint the origin of repeated bursts of intense radio waves—so-called fast radio ...

A blast of radio waves from the outskirts of an ancient galaxy challenges theories about what creates such bursts.

Astronomers have pinpointed an FRB outside a dead galaxy for the first time, challenging existing models that link FRBs to star-forming regions. Using the CHIME/FRB Outriggers, they suspect the burst ...

A fast radio burst, or a strong pulse of energy, was tracked to a distant long-dead galaxy that astronomers never thought could produce such a signal.

An Australian team has developed CRACO, an innovative radio system that detects cosmic flashes and pulses of energy in real ...

In this series, we cover provocative questions in astronomy. This week: the mysterious extragalactic signals known as Fast ...

Astronomers tracking mysterious fast radio bursts (FRBs) stumbled upon an unexpected cosmic puzzle. A burst was detected from ...

"We were focused on finding fast radio bursts, a mysterious phenomenon that has opened up a new field of research in astronomy," Dr. Wang said in an ICRAR statement. "CRACO is enabling us to find ...
