The host galaxy of a fast radio burst

TL;DR: The discovery of a fast radio burst is reported and the identification of a fading radio transient lasting ~6 days after the event, which is used to identify the host galaxy and measure the galaxy’s redshift, which provides a direct measurement of the cosmic density of ionized baryons in the intergalactic medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast radio bursts: search sensitivities and completeness

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify some sub-optimal performance in algorithms that search for fast radio bursts (FRBs), which can reduce the cosmological volume probed by over 20%, and result in missed discoveries and incorrect flux density and sky rate determinations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identifying the source of perytons at the Parkes radio telescope

TL;DR: In this article, the authors have identified strong out-of-band emission at 2.3-2.5 GHz associated with several peryton events and showed that a peryton can be generated at 1.4 GHz when a microwave oven door is opened prematurely and the telescope is at an appropriate relative angle.
