An article published in the journal “Nature” reports the identification of a new fast radio burst which was cataloged as FRB 190520B. A team of researchers made this discovery thanks to the FAST radio telescope in China. Recently, the number of known fast radio bursts has increased significantly but in this case, it’s a repeating phenomenon that makes it rare and particularly interesting. FRB 190520B has characteristics that are different from other fast radio bursts because it repeats, just like the one cataloged as FRB 121102. Magnetar-type neutron stars are the most likely candidates as sources of these emissions and the magnetar that generates FRB 190520B may have just formed after a supernova.
