长伽马射线暴起源:边界条件和二元模型

Long Gamma-Ray Burst Progenitors: Boundary Conditions and Binary Models

E. P. J. van den Heuvel, S. -C. Yoon

摘要:

观测到的长伽马射线暴(LGRB)与奇特的Ic型超新星的关联支持了Woosley的超新星/超新星模型,其中GRB是由大质量恒星的快速旋转核心坍缩成黑洞产生的。LGRB与小型恒星形成星系的关联表明,低金属丰度是大质量恒星演化到巨恒星阶段的条件。完全混合的单星模型和双星模型都是可能的。在双星模型中,伽马射线暴的前身是一颗大质量的氦星和一颗近伴星。我们发现,在核心氦燃烧的潮汐同步达到一个很短的时间尺度(不到几千年)。然而,在随后的演化阶段,强烈的核-壳耦合可能会排除氦星与主序星的同伴作为超新星/伽玛暴的祖先。另一方面,氦星与中子星或黑洞伴星组成的密近双星,尽管在氦燃烧后的阶段有很强的核壳耦合,仍然可以保持足够的核角动量来产生超新星/伽玛暴。

英文摘要:

The observed association of Long Gamma-Ray Bursts (LGRBs) with peculiar Type Ic supernovae gives support to Woosley`s collapsar/hypernova model, in which the GRB is produced by the collapse of the rapidly rotating core of a massive star to a black hole. The association of LGRBs with small star-forming galaxies suggests low-metallicity to be a condition for a massive star to evolve to the collapsar stage. Both completely-mixed single star models and binary star models are possible. In binary models the progenitor of the GRB is a massive helium star with a close companion. We find that tidal synchronization during core-helium burning is reached on a short timescale (less than a few millennia). However, the strong core-envelope coupling in the subsequent evolutionary stages is likely to rule out helium stars with main-sequence companions as progenitors of hypernovae/GRBs. On the other hand, helium stars in close binaries with a neutron-star or black-hole companion can, despite the strong core-envelope coupling in the post-helium burning phase, retain sufficient core angular momentum to produce a hypernova/GRB.
