高红移下铍和硼的Cosmic Ray生产

Cosmic Ray production of Beryllium and Boron at high redshift

Emmanuel Rollinde, David Maurin, Elisabeth Vangioni, Keith A. Olive, Susumu Inoue

摘要:

最近,在星系晕的Pop II恒星中对Li 6的新观测显示,这种同位素的丰度高得惊人,比其预测的原始值高出约1000倍。在以前的论文中,宇宙学模型的宇宙射线诱导生产的这种同位素的IGM已被开发来解释所观察到的丰度在低金属丰度。在本文中,我们给出了Li_6的这个约束条件,计算了IGM中D,Be和B的非热演化和红移。除了在IGM的宇宙宇宙射线相互作用,我们还包括额外的过程驱动的SN爆炸:中微子spiritus和低能量成分的结构喷出的外流到IGM。我们考虑到CNO CR撞击星系际气体。虽然在银盘次显性,这一过程被证明是生产的大部分的Be和B的IGM,由于结构(CRs起源)和IGM之间的差异金属富集。我们还考虑由此产生的河外伽玛射线背景,我们发现远低于现有的数据。的计算是在考虑几个恒星形成的历史,包括流行III星的层次结构形成的框架。我们发现,D的产生是可以忽略的,一个潜在的可检测的Be和B的平台是由这些过程中产生的银河系的形成时间(z ~ 3)。

英文摘要:

Recently, new observations of Li6 in Pop II stars of the galactic halo have shown a surprisingly high abundance of this isotope, about a thousand times higher than its predicted primordial value. In previous papers, a cosmological model for the cosmic ray-induced production of this isotope in the IGM has been developed to explain the observed abundance at low metallicity. In this paper, given this constraint on the Li6, we calculate the non-thermal evolution with redshift of D, Be, and B in the IGM. In addition to cosmological cosmic ray interactions in the IGM, we include additional processes driven by SN explosions: neutrino spallation and a low energy component in the structures ejected by outflows to the IGM. We take into account CNO CRs impinging on the intergalactic gas. Although subdominant in the galactic disk, this process is shown to produce the bulk of Be and B in the IGM, due to the differential metal enrichment between structures (where CRs originate) and the IGM. We also consider the resulting extragalactic gamma-ray background which we find to be well below existing data. The computation is performed in the framework of hierarchical structure formation considering several star formation histories including Pop III stars. We find that D production is negligible and that a potentially detectable Be and B plateau is produced by these processes at the time of the formation of the Galaxy (z ~ 3).
