摘要:

伽马射线暴(GRB)是潜在的河外甚高能伽玛射线源之一。我们讨论了VHE γ射线探测的前景与目前的地基切伦科夫仪器在余辉阶段。利用火球模型计算了前向冲击电子的同步辐射自康普顿(SSC)辐射。模拟结果与地面VHE仪器(如STACEE,H.E.S.S.,魔术,真理和惠普尔)。我们发现,模型SSC发射明亮的和附近的爆发,如GRB 030329是可检测的,这些仪器,即使延迟观测时间约10小时。

英文摘要:

Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) are among the potential extragalactic sources of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-rays. We discuss the prospects of detecting VHE gamma-rays with current ground-based Cherenkov instruments during the afterglow phase. Using the fireball model, we calculate the synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission from forward-shock electrons. The modeled results are compared with the observational afterglow data taken with and/or the sensitivity level of ground-based VHE instruments (e.g. STACEE, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, VERITAS, and Whipple). We find that modeled SSC emission from bright and nearby bursts such as GRB 030329 are detectable by these instruments even with a delayed observation time of ~10 hours.
