An X-Ray Census of Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies: Constraints on Active Galactic Nuclei and X-Ray Counterparts

An X-Ray Census of Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies: Constraints on Active Galactic Nuclei and X-Ray Counterparts

We present the first X-ray census of fast radio burst (FRB) host galaxies to conduct the deepest search for active galactic nuclei (AGN) and X-ray counterparts to date. Our sample includes seven well-localized FRBs with unambiguous host associations and existing deep Chandra observations, including...
