MIT team detects fast radio burst source in extreme proximity to neutron star in a first
SMRTR summary
MIT astronomers pinpointed the source of a fast radio burst (FRB) to within 10,000 kilometers of a rotating neutron star, 200 million light-years away. This discovery suggests FRBs can originate from a neutron star's magnetosphere, challenging previous theories and providing new insights into these mysterious cosmic phenomena.
