Abstract Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are coherent bursts of polarized radio emission that repeat periodically on timescales of minutes to hours. Little is known about the physical origins of these systems. Astronomers have proposed magnetars that rotate slowly and white dwarfs that rapidly orbit with a companion star as potential explanations. While several recent examples appear to support the latter hypothesis, the mechanism generating these bright radio pulses remains poorly understood.
