GRB 070616瞬发过程中的强光谱演化

Strong spectral evolution during the prompt emission of GRB 070616

R. L. C. Starling

摘要:

斯威夫特揭示了伽玛射线暴早期光变曲线的特征,如陡峭的衰变和X射线耀斑,其性质与内部起源一致,尽管它们还远未被理解。陡峭的X射线衰减通常用曲率效应来解释;然而,在这个阶段,大量的伽玛暴显示出强烈的光谱演化,必须调用一个新的机制来解释这一点。特别令人感兴趣的是持续时间最长的伽玛暴,其中的早期发射可以进行最详细的研究。在这里,我们提出的数据GRB 070616,其中的即时发射显示出一个复杂的多峰结构,导致有史以来最长的即时发射持续时间之一。我们利用所有斯威夫特仪器对如此长的爆发的广泛覆盖。结合Swift和Suzaku的数据,我们研究了瞬时发射光谱的演变,峰值能量和光谱斜率的时间变化。

英文摘要:

Swift has revealed features in GRB early light curves, such as steep decays and X-ray flares, whose properties are consistent with an internal origin though they are far from understood. The steep X-ray decay is often explained using the curvature effect; however a significant number of GRBs display strong spectral evolution during this phase, and a new mechanism must be invoked to explain this. Of particular interest are the longest duration GRBs in which the early emission can be studied in most detail. Here we present data for GRB 070616, in which the prompt emission shows a complex multipeaked structure, leading to one of the longest prompt emission durations ever recorded. We take advantage of extensive coverage of such a long burst by all Swift instruments. Combining data from Swift and Suzaku we study the evolution of the prompt emission spectrum, following the temporal variability of the peak energy and spectral slope.
