(Left) Rest-frame scatter in the observed RM, σRM,host, plotted as a function of median ∣RMhost∣ for FRB 20220529A and for other FRBs from the literature. (Right) Median rest-frame scattering timescale referenced to 600 MHz, where available, vs. σRM,host for the same FRBs. Gold and blue shaded regions represent the 68% confidence interval around the median ∣RMhost∣ and τ for FRB 20220529A and other repeaters, respectively. Uncertainties on σRM,host are smaller than the markers. The test statistics and p-values from Pearson R tests in both cases are presented in the bottom right of each panel.
