Prospects for Detecting Fast Radio Bursts in the Globular Clusters of Nearby Galaxies

The recent detection of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) in an old globular cluster in M81 challenges traditional FRB formation mechanisms based on the magnetic activity of young neutron stars formed in core-collapse supernovae. Furthermore, the detection of this repeater in such a nearby galaxy i...
