Gravitational self-lensing of Fast Radio Bursts in neutron star magnetospheres: II. Applications to strong repeaters and the CHIME population
This research investigates how strong gravitational self-lensing within neutron star magnetospheres explains observed Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). The model uses two antipodal hotspots to account for bimodal energy distributions in repeaters and predicts distance/fluence distributions for cosmological populations, showing good agreement with CHIME data.
