Here we describe the scientific usefulness of FRBs, consider ongoing work at the Parkes telescope, and examine some relevant search sensitivity and completeness considerations. We also look ahead to the results from ongoing and future planned studies in the field.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-02-16T20:19:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fast radio bursts", "implications", "relevant search sensitivity", "millisecond-duration transient signals", "scientific usefulness" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160205165K", "inspire": 1421919 } } }
