The system ASKAP J1745−5051 is a close binary where a magnetic white dwarf strips material from a red dwarf every 1.37 hours. The resulting radio bursts are so powerful that their brightness temperature exceeds 10^12 K, requiring a coherent emission mechanism — a cosmic analog of a laser. Spectrosco

FRB 20250613A, caught in a dwarf galaxy at z=0.0987, surprised us: its dispersion varied 50 times within minutes. The bursts repeat with a rhythm of 6.8 ms, as if a neutron star is spinning. And most strikingly, the brighter the pulse, the cleaner the ether: the radio wave accelerates oncoming elect
