Abstract
The universe contains a wealth of exotic sources that emit brief flashes detectable over vast distances. Among the most enigmatic of these are fast radio bursts (FRBs), which originate billions of light years from Earth. While the exact nature of FRBs is still uncertain, multiple lines of evidence point toward an origin in highly magnetized neutron stars formed during the supernova explosions of massive stars.…
