On the paucity of fast radio bursts at low Galactic latitudes
We examine the effect of Galactic diffractive interstellar scintillation as a means of explaining the reported deficit of fast radio burst (FRB) detections at low Galactic latitude. We model the unknown underlying FRB flux density distribution as a power law with a rate scaling as S−5/2+δν and accou...
