如何揭示INTEGRAL发现的银河系最模糊的高能量源的奥秘?

How to reveal the mysteries of the most obscured high-energy sources of our Galaxy, discovered by INTEGRAL?

Sylvain Chaty

摘要:

INTEGRAL卫星揭示了一种新型的高能双星系统。目前正在通过多波长光学、近红外和中红外观测来揭示这些来源。在这些来源中,出现了两种不同的类别:第一种是由内在模糊的高能量来源组成,其中IGR J16318-4848似乎是最极端的例子。第二个是所谓的超巨星快速X射线瞬变,IGR J17544-2619是原型。我们在这里报告这些系统的多波长光学中红外观测。我们表明,在被遮蔽的源的情况下,我们的观察表明存在的吸收材料(灰尘和/或冷气体)encluding整个二元系统。然后,我们讨论这两种不同类型的系统的性质。

英文摘要:

A new type of high-energy binary systems has been revealed by the INTEGRAL satellite. These sources are in the course of being unveiled by means of multi-wavelength optical, near- and mid-infrared observations. Among these sources, two distinct classes are appearing: the first one is constituted of intrinsically obscured high-energy sources, of which IGR J16318-4848 seems to be the most extreme example. The second one is populated by the so-called supergiant fast X-ray transients, with IGR J17544-2619 being the archetype. We report here on multi-wavelength optical to mid-infrared observations of these systems. We show that in the case of the obscured sources our observations suggest the presence of absorbing material (dust and/or cold gas) enshrouding the whole binary system. We then discuss the nature of these two different types of systems.
