来自双星的长GRB:失控的Wolf-Rayet祖星

Long GRBs from binary stars: runaway, Wolf-Rayet progenitors

摘要:

长伽马射线暴的波塞冬星模型需要一颗快速旋转的沃尔夫-拉叶星作为祖先。我们测试的想法,生产快速旋转的沃尔夫-拉叶星在大规模的近距离双星通过质量吸积和连续的准化学均匀的演变;后者以前曾被证明提供低于一定的金属丰度阈值的单星的missars。这里提出的双星通道可以提供一种手段,大质量恒星获得所需的高自转速率的演变准化学均匀,并履行的Bracksar的情况。此外,这表明很大一部分长伽马射线暴可能发生在逃逸恒星中。

英文摘要:

The collapsar model for long gamma-ray bursts requires a rapidly rotating Wolf-Rayet star as progenitor. We test the idea of producing rapidly rotating Wolf-Rayet stars in massive close binaries through mass accretion and consecutive quasi-chemically homogeneous evolution; the latter had previously been shown to provide collapsars below a certain metallicity threshold for single stars. The binary channel presented here may provide a means for massive stars to obtain the high rotation rates required to evolve quasi-chemically homogeneous and fulfill the collapsar scenario. Moreover, it suggests that a possibly large fraction of long gamma-ray bursts occurs in runaway stars.
