A direct localization of a fast radio burst and its host
TLDR
The authors' observations are inconsistent with the fast radio burst having a Galactic origin or its source being located within a prominent star-forming galaxy, and the source appears to be co-located with a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus or a previously unknown type of extragalactic source.

The Host Galaxy and Redshift of the Repeating Fast Radio Burst FRB 121102
The precise localization of the repeating fast radio burst (FRB 121102) has provided the first unambiguous association (chance coincidence probability p ≲ 3 × 10−4) of an FRB with an optical and…

A repeating fast radio burst
TLDR
These repeat bursts with high dispersion measure and variable spectra specifically seen from the direction of FRB 121102 support an origin in a young, highly magnetized, extragalactic neutron star.

The Repeating Fast Radio Burst FRB 121102 as Seen on Milliarcsecond Angular Scales
The millisecond-duration radio flashes known as fast radio bursts (FRBs) represent an enigmatic astrophysical phenomenon. Recently, the sub-arcsecond localization (∼100 mas precision) of FRB 121102…

FAST RADIO BURST DISCOVERED IN THE ARECIBO PULSAR ALFA SURVEY
Recent work has exploited pulsar survey data to identify temporally isolated, millisecond-duration radio bursts with large dispersion measures (DMs). These bursts have been interpreted as arising…

A strong magnetic field around the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Galaxy
TLDR
Multi-frequency radio measurements of a newly discovered pulsar close to the Galactic Centre are reported and it is shown that the pulsar’s unusually large Faraday rotation indicates that there is a dynamically important magnetic field near the black hole.

An extreme magneto-ionic environment associated with the fast radio burst source FRB 121102
TLDR
Observations of FRB 121102 show almost 100 per cent linearly polarized emission at a very high and variable Faraday rotation measure, demonstrating that the fast radio burst source is in an extreme and dynamic magneto-ionic environment, and the short durations of the bursts suggest a neutron star origin.

THE REPEATING FAST RADIO BURST FRB 121102: MULTI-WAVELENGTH OBSERVATIONS AND ADDITIONAL BURSTS
We report on radio and X-ray observations of the only known repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) source, FRB 121102. We have detected six additional radio bursts from this source: five with the Green…

Transformation of a Star into a Planet in a Millisecond Pulsar Binary
TLDR
This pulsar PSR J1719−1438, a 5.7-millisecond pulsar detected in a recent survey with the Parkes 64-meter radio telescope, is shown to be in a binary system with an orbital period of 2.2 hours.

A Multi-telescope Campaign on FRB 121102: Implications for the FRB Population
We present results of the coordinated observing campaign that made the first subarcsecond localization of a fast radio burst, FRB 121102. During this campaign, we made the first simultaneous…
