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

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

An upgrade to one of Australia's most capable radio telescopes is allowing astronomers to hunt for fast radio bursts (FRBs) ...

The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space ...

"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 ...

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

Astronomers have traced two mysterious fast radio bursts from space to wildly different places, which suggests the phenomenon may originate in diverse ways.

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 ...

An upgrade to one of Australia's most capable radio telescopes is allowing astronomers to hunt for fast radio bursts (FRBs) at 10 times their typical efficiency. By sifting through billions of ...
