The small-scale cosmic microwave background (CMB) is dominated by anisotropies from the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (kSZ) effect, and upcoming experiments will measure it very precisely, but the optical depth degeneracy limits the cosmological information that can be extracted. At the same time, fast radio bursts (FRBs) are an exciting new frontier for astrophysics, but their usefulness as cosmological probes is currently unclear. We show that FRBs are uniquely suited for breaking the kSZ optical depth degeneracy. This opens up new possibilities for constraining cosmology with the kSZ effect, and new cosmological applications for FRBs.

The One-Loop Power Spectrum of Fast Radio Burst Dispersion Measures
A one-loop EFT power spectrum model for FRB free-electron clustering matches FLAMINGO simulations to k ~ 0.2 h/Mpc, with electron bias b_e ~ 0.92 and near-perfect electron-matter correlation.

Probing Cosmic Magnetism with Rotation Measure-Squared-Galaxy Cross-Correlations
RM²–galaxy cross-correlations can isolate the magnetic field contribution from specific redshifts and may be detectable with SKA-era RM catalogs.
