A close encounter between two NSs results in the formation of highly elongated orbits, continuously shrinking due to dissipation through gravitational waves. As the orbital separation decreases, the changing magnetic flux bunches particles, which then radiate coherently. The NSs will approach each other several times, during which their respective magnetospheres will interact, leading to several FRBs before the final merger.

This model proposes that FRBs come from neutron star collisions in dense stellar clusters at centers of galactic nuclei.

== Observational Constraints ==
The expectation is that FRBs would be localized to centers of galaxies, or at least would be clustered with stellar density.
