Origin of persistent emission in enigmatic Fast Radio Bursts revealed
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are one of the most powerful and enigmatic cosmic events in the universe. Discovered just over a decade ago, these bursts release an immense amount of energy in milliseconds, making them one of the most energetic types of phenomena observed to date. However, the physical processes that give rise to them are still unknown and represent one of the most fascinating open questions in modern astrophysics today. In some cases, the brief flash of an FRB is accompanied by persistent fainter radio emission.
