M87亚秒差距尺度喷流的本征结构和运动

Intrinsic Structure and Kinematics of the Sub-Parsec Scale Jet of M87

Y. Y. Kovalev

摘要:

我们报告的新结果,从一个亚秒差距尺度的研究在M87的内部射流在15 GHz的甚长基线阵列。我们已经检测到一个临边增亮的结构,以及一个微弱的3 mas长的反功能,我们也发现临边增亮。典型的速度单独喷流功能被测量为小于0.05光速,尽管高度不对称的喷流结构和规范的相对论光束的情况下的影响。所观察到的内喷流结构可以描述在两个流的脊椎鞘速度梯度的射流根据理论预测的基础上,最近发现的强大和可变的TeV发射M87。喷流与反向喷流的通量密度比被测量为大于200。所观察到的内喷流结构与最近发现的M87的TeV发射所建议的脊鞘速度梯度的理论预测大致一致。

英文摘要:

We report new results from a sub-parsec scale study of the inner jet in M87 performed at 15 GHz with the Very Long Baseline Array. We have detected a limb brightened structure of the jet along with a faint 3 mas long counter-feature which we also find to be limb brightened. Typical speeds of separate jet features are measured to be less than 0.05 speed of light, despite the highly asymmetric jet structure and the implications of the canonical relativistic beaming scenario. The observed intrinsic jet structure can be described in terms of a two stream spine-sheath velocity gradient across the jet according to theoretical predications based on the recently discovered strong and variable TeV emission from M87. The jet to counter-jet flux density ratio is measured to be greater than 200. The observed intrinsic jet structure is broadly consistent with theoretical predictions of a spine-sheath velocity gradient suggested by recently discovered TeV emission from M87.
