We propose a geometrical explanation for periodically and nonperiodically repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) under neutron star (NS)-companion systems. We suggest a constant critical binary separation, $r_{\rm c}$, within which the…
Context: Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright millisecond radio events of unknown extragalactic origin. Magnetars are among the main contenders. Some sources, the repeaters, produce multiple events but so far generally without the…
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are cosmological sub-second bursts of coherent radio emission, whose source is still unknown. To date, the galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 is the only astrophysical object known to emit radio bursts akin to FRBs,…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are transient intense radio pulses with duration of milliseconds. Although the first FRB was detected more than a decade ago, the progenitors of these energetic events are not yet known. The currently preferred…
It is widely believed that magnetars could be born in core-collapse supernovae (SNe), binary neutron star (BNS) or binary white dwarf (BWD) mergers, or accretion-induced collapse (AIC) of white dwarfs. In this paper, we investigate whether…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic, bright pulses of emission at radio frequency with milliseconds duration. Observationally, FRBs can be divided into two classes, repeating FRBs and non-repeating FRBs. At present, twenty repeating…
Recently, some fast radio burst (FRB) repeaters were reported to exhibit complex, diverse variations of Faraday rotation measures (RMs), which implies that they are surrounded by an inhomogeneous, dynamically evolving, magnetized…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are mysterious transient phenomena. The study of repeating FRBs may provide useful information about their nature due to their redetectability. The two most famous repeating sources are FRBs 121102 and 180916, with…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) last for $\sim $ few milli-seconds and, hence, are likely to arise from the gravitational collapse of supra-massive, spinning neutron stars after they lose the centrifugal support (Falcke \& Rezzolla 2014). In this…
Most of fast radio bursts (FRB) do not show evidence for repetition, and such non-repeating FRBs may be produced at the time of a merger of binary neutron stars (BNS), provided that the BNS merger rate is close to the high end of the…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) at cosmological distances have recently been discovered, whose duration is about milliseconds. We argue that the observed short duration is difficult to explain by giant flares of soft gamma-ray repeaters, though…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are mysterious bright millisecond-duration radio bursts at cosmological distances. While young magnetars have been put forward as the leading source candidate, recent observations suggest there may be multiple FRB…
The detection of fast radio bursts (FRBs) in both young and old stellar populations suggests multiple formation pathways, beyond just young magnetars from core-collapse supernovae. A promising delayed channel involves the formation of…
The discovery of periodicity in the arrival times of the fast radio bursts (FRBs) poses a challenge to the oft-studied magnetar scenarios. However, models that postulate that FRBs result from magnetized shocks or magnetic reconnection in a…
Recently born magnetars are promising candidates for the engines powering fast radio bursts (FRBs). The focus thus far has been placed on millisecond magnetars born in rare core-collapse explosions, motivated by the star forming dwarf host…
Popular models of repeating Fast Radio Bursts (and perhaps of all Fast Radio Bursts) involve neutron stars because of their high rotational or magnetostatic energy densities. These models take one of two forms: giant but rare pulsar-like…
Since the discovery of FRB 200428 associated with the Galactic SGR 1935+2154, magnetars are considered to power fast radio bursts (FRBs). It is widely believed that magnetars could form by core-collapse (CC) explosions and compact binary…
Paper I in this series introduced a model in which seed radio bursts produced by a hotspot anchored in the magnetosphere of a highly-magnetic neutron star (NS) are greatly amplified by strong gravitational self-lensing and thus give rise to…
Scenario of formation of fast radio bursts (FRBs) is proposed. Just like radio pulsars, sources of FRBs are magnetized neutron stars. Appearance of strong electric field in a magnetosphere of a neutron star is associated with close passage…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration, extragalactic radio flashes of unknown physical origin. FRB 121102, the only known repeating FRB source, has been localized to a star-forming region in a dwarf galaxy at redshift z = 0.193,…
