耀变体AO 0235+164的极端光偏振行为

Extreme photo-polarimetric behaviour of the blazar AO 0235+164

摘要:

我们目前的光学偏振观测的耀变体AO 0235+164的高时间分辨率。我们的数据,第一次测试这个对象在很短的时间尺度的光偏振行为,显示显着的微变总通量,颜色指数,线性偏振度,和位置角。强夜间变化也检测到这些参数。虽然没有发现颜色指数和总流量之间的相关性,我们的数据似乎支持一般的蓝时,更明亮的趋势已经为这个对象。偏振度与总通量没有相关性,但有一个明显的趋势,即当测得的偏振度较高时,颜色指数更红(光谱更柔和)。

英文摘要:

We present optical photo-polarimetric observations with high temporal resolution of the blazar AO 0235+164. Our data, the first to test the photo-polarimetric behaviour of this object at very short time-scales, show significant micro-variability in total flux, colour index, linear polarization degree, and position angle. Strong inter-night variations are also detected for these parameters. Although no correlation between colour index and total flux was found, our data seem to support the general bluer-when-brighter trend already known for this object. The polarization degree, in turn, shows no correlation with total flux, but a clear trend in the sense that colour index is redder (the spectrum is softer) when the measured polarization is higher.
