Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are enigmatic transients with very short radio emission. Their nature is still widely debated. I provide the first analysis of atomic gas properties of a small sample of FRB hosts to constrain their nature. HI…

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are very energetic pulses of unknown physical origin. These can be used to study the intergalactic medium (IGM) thanks to their dispersion measure (DM). The DM has several contributions that can be measured (or…

Turbulence is a vital part of the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies, contributing significantly to galaxy energy budgets and acting as a regulator of star formation. Despite this, little is understood about ISM turbulence empirically.…

A few fast radio bursts' (FRBs) light-curves have exhibited large intrinsic modulations of their flux on extremely short ($t_{\rm r}\sim 10\mu$s) time scales, compared to pulse durations ($t_{\rm FRB}\sim1$ms). Light-curve variability…

Fast Radio Bursts are bright, unresolved, non-repeating, broadband, millisecond flashes, found primarily at high Galactic latitudes, with dispersion measures much larger than expected for a Galactic source. The inferred all-sky burst rate…

We examine the spectra of 23 fast radio bursts detected in a fly's-eye survey with the Australian SKA Pathfinder, including those of three bursts not previously reported. The mean spectral index of $\alpha = -1.6_{-0.2}^{+0.3}$ ($F_\nu…

As part of the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) project, we report 41 new Rotation Measures (RMs) from 20 repeating Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) obtained between 2019 and 2023 for which no previous RM…

Some repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources exhibit complex polarization behaviors, including frequency-dependent depolarization, variation of rotation measure (RM), and oscillating spectral structures of polarized components. Very…
