“…It is firmly established that at least a few milli-second duration, very bright, radio signals that have been detected between about 400 MHz and 7 GHz (known as Fast Radio Bursts or FRBs) are coming from a distance of about a Gpc or more, eg. Lorimer et al 2007; Thornton et al 2013;Spitler et al 2014;Petroff et al 2016;Bannister et al 2017;Law et al 2017;Chatterjee et al 2017;Marcote et al 2017;Tendulkar et al 2017;Gajjar et al 2018;Michilli et al 2018;Farah et al 2018;Shannon et al 2018;Oslowski et al 2019;Kocz et al 2019;Bannister et al 2019;CHIME Collaboration 2019a and2019b;Ravi 2019aRavi , 2019bRavi et al 2019. Many mechanisms have been suggested for the generation of high luminosity coherent radio waves from Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), eg. Katz (2014Katz ( , 2016, Murase et al (2016;, Kumar et al (2017), Metzger et al (2017), Zhang (2017), Beloborodov (2017), Cordes (2017), Ghisellini & Locatelli (2018), Lu & Kumar (2018), Metzger et al (2019), Thompson (2019), Wang & Lai (2019), ; for a recent review see Katz (2018).…”
