DOI: 10.1038/s41550-018-0612-z
Abstract: To date, one repeating and many apparently non-repeating fast radio bursts have been detected. This dichotomy has driven discussions about whether fast radio bursts stem from a single population of sources or two or more… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stx2825
Abstract: 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 critically reanalyse current… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz2052
Abstract: Fast radio bursts are millisecond-duration radio pulses of extragalactic origin. A recent statistical analysis has found that the burst energetics of the repeating source FRB 121102 follow a power law, with an exponent that is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnrasl/slab093
Abstract: Most fast radio burst (FRB) models are built from comparatively common astronomical objects: neutron stars, black holes, and supernova remnants. Yet FRB sources are rare, and most of these objects, found in the Galaxy, do… read more here.
