Abstract (from CDS):

We present a detection of a bright burst from the fast radio burst (FRB) 20201124A, which is one of the most active repeating FRBs, based on S-band observations with the 64 m radio telescope at the Usuda Deep Space Center/JAXA. This is the first FRB observed by using a Japanese facility. Our detection at 2 GHz in 2022 February is the highest frequency for this FRB and the fluence of >189 Jy ms is one of the brightest bursts from this FRB source. We place an upper limit on the spectral index α = -2.14 from the detection of the S band and non-detection of the X band at the same time. We compare the event rate of the detected burst with those from previous research and suggest that the power law of the luminosity function might be broken at lower fluence and the fluences of bright FRBs are distributed up to over 2 GHz with the power law against frequency. In addition, we show that the energy density of the burst detected in this work is comparable to the bright population of one-off FRBs. We propose that repeating FRBs can be as bright as one-off FRBs and only their brightest bursts might be detected, so some repeating FRBs intrinsically might have been classified as one-off FRBs.
