A search for fast radio bursts associated with gamma-ray bursts

The detection of seven fast radio bursts (FRBs) has recently been reported. FRBs are short duration (~1 ms), highly dispersed radio pulses from astronomical sources. The physical interpretation for the FRBs remains unclear but is thought to involve highly compact objects at cosmological distance. It...
