Limits on Fast Radio Bursts and other transient sources at 182 MHz using the Murchison Widefield Array

We present a survey for transient and variable sources, on time-scales from 28 s to ~1 yr, using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) at 182 MHz. Down to a detection threshold of 0.285 Jy, no transient candidates were identified, making this the most constraining low-frequency survey to date and plac...
