Fast radio burst event rate counts - I. Interpreting the observations

The fluence distribution of the fast radio burst (FRB) population (the 'source count' distribution, N ( > F) αF α ), is a crucial diagnostic of its distance distribution, and hence the progenitor evolutionary history. We critically reanalyse current estimates of the FRB source co...
