The Indian scientists will present the FRB catalogue at the American Astronomical Society meeting this week.
These FRBs are extraordinary cosmic events that generate as much energy in a thousandth of a second as the Sun does in a year. They disappear in much less than the blink of an eye, according to NASA’s website.
The bright flashes of light that register in a radio band and blaze for a few milliseconds make it difficult for astronomers to track or know what causes them. To catch sight of a fast radio burst is to be extremely lucky in where and when you point the radio dish.
