AI 中文摘要
快速射电暴（FRBs）是起源于银河系外的毫秒级射电瞬变现象，其辐射机制和 progenitors 仍未解决。对快速增长样本的统计分析为约束其潜在物理提供了有前景的手段。在本综述中，我们综合了当前 FRB 目录中得出的统计性质，涵盖色散量、红移、能量/光度函数、重复率以及宿主星系人口统计的约束。对于重复快速射电暴，我们考察了能量、通量/流量密度、等待时间的统计，并讨论了揭示记忆效应和混沌动力学的时间序列分析。我们进一步讨论了周期性活动的观测发现和理论解释，并综述了探测 FRB 源磁离子环境的偏振性质。贯穿全文，我们强调稳健的经验趋势，考虑观测偏差和选择效应，并概述关于这些神秘暴物理起源的未解决开放问题。
英文摘要
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration radio transients of extragalactic origin, whose emission mechanisms and progenitors remain unresolved. Statistical analyses of the rapidly growing samples provide a promising means to constrain the underlying physics. In this review, we synthesize the statistical properties derived from current FRB catalogs, encompassing constraints on dispersion measure, redshift, energy/luminosity functions, repetition rate, and host-galaxy demographics. For repeating FRBs, we examine the statistics of energy, fluence/flux, waiting time, and discuss time-series analyses that reveal memory effects and chaotic dynamics. We further discuss the observational discovery and theoretical interpretation of periodic activity, and survey polarization properties that probe the magneto-ionic environments of FRB sources. Throughout, we emphasize robust empirical trends, account for observational biases and selection effects, and outline outstanding open questions regarding the physical origin of these enigmatic bursts.
