TWISTS AND TURNS The twisted waves from a distant fast
radio burst suggest the burst originates from a neighborhood with a strong magnetic field.

And the gamma - ray emission from FRB 131104 outshines its
radio emissions by more than a billion times, dramatically raising estimates of the
burst's energy requirements and
suggesting severe consequences for the
burst's surroundings and host galaxy.
The origin of a fast
radio burst in this type of dwarf galaxy
suggests a connection to other energetic events that occur in similar dwarf galaxies, said co-author and UC Berkeley astronomer Casey Law, who led development of the data - acquisition system and created the analysis software to search for rapid, one - off
bursts.
However, newly published research
suggests that mysterious phenomena called fast
radio bursts could be evidence of advanced alien technology.
The Dutch and Breakthrough Listen teams
suggest that the fast
radio bursts may come from a highly magnetized rotating neutron star — a magnetar — in the vicinity of a massive black hole that is still growing as gas and dust fall into it.
Astronomers at Sweet Briar College and the Naval Research Laboratory have detected a powerful new
bursting radio source whose unique properties
suggest the discovery of a new class of astronomical objects.
Harvard researchers
suggest that interstellar spacecraft in faraway galaxies could be behind fast
radio bursts.
