", a new type of fast radio bursts that the team determined lasts for a mind-boggling ten millionths of a second or less.and the University of Amsterdam , along with being lead author of the most recent study and a co-author on the 2021 study.FRB 20121102A

Upon obtaining the data, the team took the first 30 minutes and split each second into 500,000 separate images, then incorporatedand software filters to isolate outliers within the data to identify eight ultra-fast radio bursts lasting a mere ten millionths of a second or less. For context, ten millionths of a second is equivalent to 0.0000001 seconds.

While questions remain as to how these ultra-fast radio bursts are produced, the team does expect to identify more ultra-fast radio bursts in the future. However, the difficulty lies in finding data files capable of being split into 500,000 separate images per second, as some files lack the necessary specifications to make such splitting possible.
