Cosmic radio pulses repeating every few minutes or hours, known as long-period transients, have puzzled astronomers since ...

So if we’re right, each former human is now essentially a radio transmitter and receiver. One plurb sends out a signal that is detected by others, who pass it on to others, and so on. It sounds like ...

A repeating fast radio burst has just given up one of its biggest secrets. Long-term observations revealed a rare signal ...

As drones survey forests, robots navigate warehouses and sensors monitor city streets, more of the world’s decision-making is occurring autonomously on the edge—on the small devices that gather ...

An international team of astronomers, including researchers from the Department of Physics at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), has uncovered the first decisive evidence that at least some fast radio ...

Astronomers at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR), working with international collaborators, have made a striking discovery involving a previously unknown type of cosmic ...

Astronomers have found compelling evidence that at least some fast radio bursts originate from stars in binary systems rather than from isolated objects. An international group of astronomers, ...

All told, GPM J1839-10 has the potential to be the missing link between long-period transients and white dwarf pulsars ...

Artist's impression illustrating a binary-origin scenario for fast radio bursts. A magnetised plasma cloud, generated by a coronal mass ejection from ...
