When radio waves travel as fast radio bursts toward Earth, their light can be measured in different wavelengths that spread out. How much the light spreads out is dependent on how much matter is in ...

It must be impulsive, short, and at radio wavelengths.” The team was able to use the dispersion of light to map and measure matter along the pathway of the fast radio bursts.

Flashing lights lead the way More than a thousand fast radio bursts, or FRBs, have been detected since their discovery in 2007. Only about 100 have been traced back to galaxies, according to the ...
