Research from MIT identifies the source of fast radio burst FRB 20221022A, linking it to a neutron star's magnetosphere and ...

Scientists locate FRB 20221022A near a neutron star, revealing its magnetic origin and a closer understanding of FRBs.

But now, a rare burst has provided indications that FRBs likely originate near the star and that they share a feature with the emissions of pulsars, another subtype of neutron star.

"In these environments of neutron stars, the magnetic fields are really at the limits of what the universe can produce." ...

Astronomy has been puzzling over fast radio bursts for years. Now such a radio burst has been traced back to its origin with ...

Researchers have estimated that FRB 20221022A exploded from a region that is at most 10,000 kilometers (6,000 miles) away ...
