The origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs), highly energetic, millisecond-duration radio pulses originating from beyond our galaxy, remains unknown. Observationally, FRBs are classified as non-repeating or repeating, however, this…

The fluence distribution of the Fast Radio Burst (FRB) population (the "source counts" distribution, $N(>F) \propto F^\alpha$), is a crucial diagnostic of its distance distribution, and hence the progenitor evolutionary history. We…
