The CRACO radio telescope system processes a massive amount of data in real-time, so it can detect fast radio bursts and ...

Astronomers have traced two mysterious fast radio bursts from space to wildly different places, which suggests the phenomenon may originate in diverse ways.

A blast of radio waves from the outskirts of an ancient galaxy challenges theories about what creates such bursts.

A fast radio burst, or a strong pulse of energy, was tracked to a distant long-dead galaxy that astronomers never thought could produce such a signal.

Astronomer Calvin Leung was excited last summer to crunch data from a newly commissioned radio telescope to precisely pinpoint the origin of repeated bursts of intense radio waves—so-called fast radio ...

An Australian team has developed CRACO, an innovative radio system that detects cosmic flashes and pulses of energy in real ...

The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space ...

In this series, we cover provocative questions in astronomy. This week: the mysterious extragalactic signals known as Fast ...

An upgrade to one of Australia's most capable radio telescopes is allowing astronomers to hunt for fast radio bursts (FRBs) ...

Based on what scientists thought they knew about fast radio bursts, referred to in astronomy as FRBs, this type of galaxy should not contain the kind of star long thought to produce such bursts.

Astronomers tie mysterious eruptions to massive galaxies "We were focused on finding fast radio bursts, a mysterious phenomenon that has opened up a new field of research in astronomy," Dr. Wang ...
