AI detected nearly 6,000 bursts from a single object, confirming they always fall into two energy types.

Fast radio bursts are millisecond-long cosmic signals. Previously, searching for them was like blindly tuning a radio dial. The EDENneural network sees the entire frequency spread and recognizes the burst pattern like a musician reads notes. On source FRB 20121102A, it found 5,927 bursts — three times more than before.
Where once there was a whisper, now an orchestra plays.
Analysis revealed two clear energy classes: weak and powerful. This constancy points to an innate mechanism, likely in a neutron star with a strong magnetic field. Jocelyn Bell Burnell once discovered pulsars by poring over paper tape; EDEN discerned a hidden rhythm in radio data.
The duality of energy isn't aging: it's the source's very nature.
Each burst, in a millisecond, releases energy equal to the Sun's output over hundreds of years.
