Plots

  • Flexible plots (e.g. Gal. latitude vs DM); leave it to the user to judge whether a parameter combination makes sense
  • Interactive plots

Catalogue rows

  • Redshift (progress: redshifts.py)
  • Localization area
  • RM & polarization properties (frac. linear and circular)
  • Scattering (temporal broadening and scint. bandwidth)

Database

Misc

  • # FRB Source instead of FRB Count
  • Association with catalogued sources within errorbox (galaxies, supernovae, X-ray sources etc.) - see: http://cdsxmatch.u-strasbg.fr
  • Cross-reference positions and estimated redshifts of FRBs with the Nasa Extragalactic Database and find objects which could be potential sources

FRB Source instead of FRB Count

@jantoniadis - To avoid confusions, the y-axis label has been renamed to 'FRB Detection Count'.

To clarify, the plot presents the total number of detections (not one-off events/repeaters/sources in general), so it highlights the overall "technological advancement" of our ability to detect bursts (in regard to instrumentation, techniques etc.)
