The #ShawPrize in Astronomy 2023 is awarded in equal shares to Matthew Bailes, Duncan Lorimer and Maura McLaughlin for the discovery of fast radio bursts (FRBs): https://www.shawprize.org/prizes-and-laureates/astronomy/2023/press-release - although the nature of #FRBs remains unknown, they are almost certainly associated with neutron stars. FRBs have the potential to provide a unique probe of physics in extreme conditions and of the distribution of matter in the universe.
