This collaborative award will support personnel to complete a commensal search for the recently discovered Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) using the 20-m telescope at Green Bank at L-band (1.4 GHz). The project, GBTrans, will utilize existing infrastructure and development. Broader impacts of the work include research training of one graduate student and two undergrads, and outreach to high-school students and their teachers to enhance the research experience as part of the NSF-funded "Pulsar Search Collaboratory" which is run by researchers at NRAO and WVU.GBTrans will also perform extensive searches for giant pulses from known radio pulsars, and will provide constraints on the statistics of the brightest such pulses. An important capability of the instrument is its full-polarization recording, which will identify the polarization properties of FRBs and perhaps even their rotation measures.

该协作奖项将支持人员使用L-Band（1.4 GHz）的Green Bank的20米望远镜（1.4 GHz）的20米望远镜完成对最近发现的快速无线电爆发（FRB）的共同搜索。该项目GBTRANS将利用现有的基础架构和开发。这项工作的更广泛影响包括对一名研究生和两名本科生的研究培训，以及向高中生及其老师提供宣传，以增强研究经验，作为NSF筹集的“ Pulsar Search搜索”的一部分，该研究人员由NRAO和WVU.GBTRANS的研究人员运行，还将对巨大的Pulsess进行巨大的Pulsisters进行巨大的脉动，并将在已知的Pulsess上进行良好的启发，并将在构成的Pulsess上进行构造，并将在构成范围内构成构造，并将其构成构成的产品，并将其构成构造的构造，并将其构成构造的成果。该仪器的一个重要能力是其全偏振记录，它将确定FRB甚至其旋转措施的极化特性。
