Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most puzzling astronomical phenomena. These brief yet intense bursts of radio waves, lasting just milliseconds, originate from deep space. Scientists first ...

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), brief yet brilliant eruptions of cosmic radio waves from the distant universe, have baffled astronomers since they were first reported nearly a decade ago. Though they appear ...

NEW YORK — Astronomers have spotted the brightest fast radio burst yet coming from a nearby galaxy. Observations of this phenomenon, a powerful flash of radio waves that lasts only about one ...

An artist's impression shows a red dwarf (left) and a white dwarf (center) closely orbiting each other. Astronomers believe the tight orbit causes the stars' magnetic fields to interact, releasing ...

Fast radio bursts are brief and brilliant explosions of radio waves emitted by extremely compact objects such as neutron ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I cover aerospace, astronomy & hosted The Cosmic Controversy Podcast. First discovered by a stroke of sheer luck while combing ...

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are puzzling phenomena because their details are so difficult to resolve, and observations to date have been inconsistent. Astronomers added another piece to the puzzle with ...

Pulsars, the rapidly rotating neutron stars discovered over half a century ago, offer profound insights into extreme physics, including strong gravity and the behaviour of matter under extraordinary ...

This artist’s impression (not to scale) illustrates the path of the fast radio burst FRB 20220610A, from the distant galaxy where it originated all the way to Earth, in one of the Milky Way’s spiral ...
