摘要:

伽马射线暴瞬发的起源目前还没有很好的理解,在这种情况下,长期的,良好的观察事件是特别重要的研究。我们提出的情况下,GRB 070616,分析异常长时间的多峰提示发射,后来的余辉,捕获的所有仪器上斯威夫特和朱雀WAM。高能光变曲线在几百秒内基本保持平稳,然后急剧下降。从硬到软的光谱演变显然是发生在整个即时发射,在触发后285秒开始,并延伸到1200秒。我们跟踪频谱峰值能量的移动,同时观察到低能量频谱斜率的软化。通量的急剧下降可能是由这种强烈的光谱演化和曲率效应的组合引起的。我们调查起源的光谱演化,排除了两个幂律的叠加,而不是考虑一个额外的组件占主导地位的后期提示发射。我们还讨论了早期的光学发射和余辉的物理起源。GRB 070616的案例清楚地表明,宽带覆盖和良好的时间分辨率对于确定GRB中复杂瞬发辐射的起源至关重要。

英文摘要:

The origins of Gamma-ray Burst prompt emission are currently not well understood and in this context long, well-observed events are particularly important to study. We present the case of GRB 070616, analysing the exceptionally long-duration multipeaked prompt emission, and later afterglow, captured by all the instruments on-board Swift and by Suzaku WAM. The high energy light curve remained generally flat for several hundred seconds before going into a steep decline. Spectral evolution from hard to soft is clearly taking place throughout the prompt emission, beginning at 285 s after the trigger and extending to 1200 s. We track the movement of the spectral peak energy, whilst observing a softening of the low energy spectral slope. The steep decline in flux may be caused by a combination of this strong spectral evolution and the curvature effect. We investigate origins for the spectral evolution, ruling out a superposition of two power laws and considering instead an additional component dominant during the late prompt emission. We also discuss origins for the early optical emission and the physics of the afterglow. The case of GRB 070616 clearly demonstrates that both broadband coverage and good time resolution are crucial to pin down the origins of the complex prompt emission in GRBs.
