Repeating behaviour of FRB 121102: periodicity, waiting times, and energy distribution

Repeating behaviour of FRB 121102: periodicity, waiting times, and energy distribution

Detections from the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 are clustered in time, noticeable even in the earliest repeat bursts. Recently, it was argued that the source activity is periodic, suggesting that the clustering reflected a not-yet-identified periodicity. We performed an extensive multi-wavelength campaign with the Effelsberg telescope, the Green …
