Fast Radio Burst Cosmology with the Rotation Measure-Persistent Radio Source Luminosity Correlation.

GAO R., GAO H., LI Z. and YANG Y.-P.

Abstract (from CDS):

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) have emerged as a powerful tool for cosmological studies, particularly through the dispersion measure-redshift (DM-z) relation. This work proposes a novel calibration method for FRBs using the Yang-Li-Zhang (YLZ) empirical relation, which links the rotation measure of FRBs to the luminosity of their associated persistent radio sources (PRS). We demonstrate that this approach provides independent constraints on cosmological parameters, bypassing limitations inherent to the traditional DM-z method. Utilizing the current sample of four YLZ-calibrated FRBs, we derive a Hubble constant measurement of ${H}_{0}=86.1{8}_{-14.99}^{+18.03}\,{\rm{km}}\,{{\rm{s}}}^{-1}\,{{\rm{Mpc}}}^{-1}$ (68% CL). Monte Carlo simulations indicate that a future catalog of 400 FRB-PSR systems could reduce the relative uncertainty of H0 to 4.5%. Combining YLZ-calibrated FRBs with the DM-z sample reveals critical synergies: joint analysis of equalized samples (N = 100 for both methods) reduces the relative uncertainty of H0 to 2.9%, mainly because the incorporation of PRS observations substantially mitigates the degeneracy between the parameters such as intergalactic medium baryon mass fraction (fIGM) and other cosmological parameters inherent to the DM-z relation.
