Brief description

We have discovered a candidate radio counterpart, with an unusual optical identification, to the fast radio burst FRB 131104. Theoretical models and the variability of the radio flux density of the counterpart suggest a possible radio pulsar / magnetar interpretation. We propose to test this interpretation using a deep pulsar search with the Parkes telescope. Simultaneous ATCA flux density measurements as part of the C3409 program will enable us to exclude a pulsed emission scenario in the case of a non-detection.
