用新一代卫星探测器探测低光度GRB星群

Probing the low-luminosity GRB population with new generation satellite detectors

A. Imerito, D. Coward, R. Burman, D. Blair

摘要:

我们比较了低光度(LL)GRB的检测率和红移分布的本地化雨燕与那些预计将被观察到的新一代卫星探测器GLAST(现在费米),在未来,EXIST。虽然GLAST爆发望远镜在15 - 150 keV波段的灵敏度低于斯威夫特,但它的大视场意味着它将使斯威夫特对LL爆发的探测率增加一倍。我们表明,斯威夫特,GLAST和EXIST应检测约1,2和30 LL伽玛暴,分别在5年的运行期。EXIST上的爆发望远镜应该以比斯威夫特的BAT大一个数量级以上的速度探测LL GRB。我们表明,LL伽玛暴的检测范围将从$z \simeq 0.4$的斯威夫特到$z \simeq 1.1$在EXIST时代。此外,LL爆发对观测到的GRB红移分布的贡献将有助于在$z \simeq 1$的分布中的可识别的功能。

英文摘要:

We compare the detection rates and redshift distributions of low-luminosity (LL) GRBs localized by Swift with those expected to be observed by the new generation satellite detectors on GLAST (now Fermi) and, in future, EXIST. Although the GLAST burst telescope will be less sensitive than Swift's in the 15--150 keV band, its large field-of-view implies that it will double Swift's detection rate of LL bursts. We show that Swift, GLAST and EXIST should detect about 1, 2 & 30 LL GRBs, respectively, over a 5-year operational period. The burst telescope on EXIST should detect LL GRBs at a rate of more than an order of magnitude greater than that of Swift's BAT. We show that the detection horizon for LL GRBs will be extended from $z \simeq 0.4$ for Swift to $z \simeq 1.1$ in the EXIST era. Also, the contribution of LL bursts to the observed GRB redshift distribution will contribute to an identifiable feature in the distribution at $z \simeq 1$.
