Journal ArticleDOI

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

Repeating and non-repeating fast radio bursts from binary neutron star mergers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a general-relativistic simulation of a binary neutron star (BNS) merger and showed that the ejecta appears about 1 ms after the rotation speed of the merged star becomes the maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Galactic Halo Contribution to the Dispersion Measure of Extragalactic Fast Radio Bursts

TL;DR: In this article, a model of the Milky Way (MW) halo component of the dispersion measure (DM) for extragalactic sources, such as fast radio bursts (FRBs), is presented in light of recent diffuse X-ray observations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repeating and Non-repeating Fast Radio Bursts from Binary Neutron Star Mergers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a general-relativistic simulation of a binary neutron star (BNS) merger and showed that the ejecta appears about 1 ms after the rotation speed of the merged star becomes the maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI

A blind search for prompt gamma-ray counterparts of fast radio bursts with Fermi-LAT data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a blind search for msec-duration gamma-ray flashes using the 7-year Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) all-sky gamma ray data and found no flash events at high Galactic latitude region (|b|>20 deg).
