| contents | We utilize the Quark-Novae (QN) model for Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs; Ouyed et al. 2021; arXiv:2005.09793) to evaluate its performance in reproducing the distribution and statistical properties of key observations. These include frequency, duration, fluence, dispersion measure (DM), and other relevant features such as repetition, periodic activity window, and the sad trombone effect. In our model, FRBs are attributed to coherent synchrotron emission (CSE) originating from collisionless QN chunks that traverse ionized media both within and outside their host galaxies. By considering burst repetition from a single chunk and accounting for the intrinsic DM of the chunks, we find agreement between our model and the observed properties of FRBs. This agreement enhances our confidence in the model's effectiveness for interpreting FRB observations. Our model generates testable predictions, allowing for future experiments and observations to validate and further refine our understanding of FRBs. |
