This discovery allowed the astronomers to reconstruct the stellar life
story that permitted the
magnetar to form, in place
of the expected black hole [3].
If the young -
magnetar theory is correct, then — according to one possible version
of the
story — we have to envisage a newborn, superdense neutron star cloaked in a powerful and highly unstable magnetic field.
This
story is still just hypothetical, but astrophysicists point to a piece
of supporting evidence: The FRBs are coming from the same vicinity as a steady source
of radio emission — possibly the background signal from the expanding debris cloud that surrounds the young
magnetar.
