Description

Real-time cosmology refers to measuring the evolution of the universe in real time. Given the short human lifetime compared to the age of the universe, measuring such changes is very challenging. Thanks to their short duration and the typical time delays involved, lensed repeating FRBs may offer a unique opportunity to do so. I will review this possibility and discuss its feasibility using existing and upcoming facilities.
