We present the host galaxies of four apparently non-repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs), FRBs 20181223C, 20190418A, 20191220A, and 20190425A, reported in the first Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME/FRB) catalog. Our selection of these FRBs is based on a planned hypothesis testing framework where we search all CHIME/FRB Catalog-1 events that have low extragalactic dispersion measure (< 100 pc cm$^{-3}$), with high Galactic latitude (|b| > 10$\deg$) and saved baseband data. We associate the selected FRBs to galaxies with moderate to high star-formation rates located at redshifts between 0.027 and 0.071. We also search for possible multi-messenger counterparts, including persistent compact radio and gravitational wave (GW) sources, and find none. Utilizing the four FRB hosts from this study along with the hosts of 14 published local Universe FRBs (z < 0.1) with robust host association, we conduct an FRB host demographics analysis. We find all 18 local Universe FRB hosts in our sample to be spirals (or late-type galaxies), including the host of FRB 20220509G, which was previously reported to be elliptical. Using this observation, we scrutinize proposed FRB source formation channels and argue that core-collapse supernovae are likely the dominant channel to form FRB progenitors. Moreover, we infer no significant difference in the host properties of repeating and apparently non-repeating FRBs in our local Universe FRB host sample. Finally, we find the burst rates of these four apparently non-repeating FRBs to be consistent with those of the sample of localized repeating FRBs observed by CHIME/FRB. Therefore, we encourage further monitoring of these FRBs with more sensitive radio telescopes.

  1. Fast Radio Bursts Trace Cosmic Star Formation with Little Delay

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Hierarchical Bayesian analysis of CHIME/FRB finds the FRB volumetric rate peaks with the cosmic star-formation history at mean delays of 0.1–0.3 Gyr, consistent with zero delay and ruling out multi-Gyr merger-like delays.

  2. Generalized Distributions of Host Dispersion Measures in the Fast Radio Burst Cosmology

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Generalizing the host galaxy dispersion measure distribution in FRB cosmology with 125 events produces Hubble constant estimates consistent with Planck 2018 and SH0ES while strongly favoring these models over narrow-p...

  3. Constraints on the baryon density from fast radio bursts using a non-parametric reconstruction of the Hubble parameter

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 conditional novelty 5.0

    FRB dispersion measures combined with non-parametric H(z) reconstruction yield Ω_b h² = 0.02236 ± 0.00090, agreeing with BBN and Planck CMB to within 0.05%.

  4. Constraints on Dark Energy and Modified Gravity Models from Fast Radio Bursts and Late-Time Geometric Probes

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Combining 104 FRBs with CC, SNe, and BAO data yields 10-43% tighter constraints on Omega_b, H0, and dark energy parameters in LambdaCDM, wCDM, CPL, and three f(R) models, with modest preference for extensions over LambdaCDM.

  5. The impact of FRB dispersion measure probability distribution functions on cosmographic estimates

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Cosmographic constraints from 106 FRBs on H0, q0, j0 depend sensitively on whether a Gaussian or quasi-Gaussian PDF is assumed for DM_IGM and on whether the baryon mass fraction is fixed or free.

  6. Probing Primordial Black Holes with upcoming Radio Telescopes: a case study for LOFAR2.0, FAST Core Array and BINGO

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 conditional novelty 4.0

    LOFAR2.0, FAST Core Array and BINGO are forecast to bound f_PBH < 0.16 (M>1 Msun), <0.39 (M>10 Msun) and <0.39 (M>0.1 Msun) respectively from null FRB lensing.

  7. Probing Primordial Black Holes with upcoming Radio Telescopes: a case study for LOFAR2.0, FAST Core Array and BINGO

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    LOFAR2.0, FAST Core Array and BINGO can constrain the PBH dark matter fraction f_PBH below 0.16-0.39 for masses above 10^{-2} to 10 solar masses via FRB lensing statistics.
