A study links fast radio bursts to massive galaxies, suggesting origins in young neutron stars.

A recent study links fast radio bursts (FRBs) to massive, star-forming galaxies, providing insights into magnetar formation. Researchers found that FRBs are more common in these galaxies, suggesting they may originate from young neutron stars created by binary star mergers. This challenges earlier theories that linked FRBs to single star explosions. The findings enhance understanding of FRBs and magnetars, crucial for unraveling cosmic phenomena.
