Five new fast radio bursts from the HTRU high-latitude survey at Parkes: First evidence for two-component bursts

The detection of five new fast radio bursts (FRBs) found in the 1.4-GHz High Time Resolution Universe high-latitude survey at Parkes, is presented. The rate implied is 7+5-3 × 103 (95 per cent) FRBs sky-1 d-1 above a fluence of 0.13 Jy ms for an FRB of 0.128 ms duration to 1.5 Jy ms for 16 ms durati...
