A living theory catalogue for fast radio bursts

E Platts, A Weltman, A Walters, SP Tendulkar… - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier
At present, we have almost as many theories to explain Fast Radio Bursts as we have Fast
Radio Bursts observed. This landscape will be changing rapidly with CHIME/FRB, recently …
