摘要:

在射电星系3C 390.3的光学连续辐射的变化进行了比较,从紧凑的,次秒差距尺度的喷流在这个对象的无线电发射的属性。我们发现,光学连续辐射的长期变化(>10年)与位于盘上方的喷流底部的射电辐射相关,而光学长期变化(1-2年)则与喷流中静止分量的射电耀斑相关,其时间延迟约为1年。这种静止的特征很可能是在距离喷流底部约0.4秒差距处看到的连续相对论气流中形成的立激波。为了解释所观察到的相关性,我们提出了一个模型的3C 390.3的核区域中,从射流和反喷流的连续发射束离子化材料在射流周围的亚相对论流出。这导致在距离中央发动机约0.6秒差距处形成两个具有双峰宽发射线的锥形区域(除了中央核周围的传统宽线区域之外)。

英文摘要:

Variations of the optical continuum emission in the radio galaxy 3C 390.3 are compared to the properties of radio emission from the compact, sub-parsec-scale jet in this object. We showed that very long-term variations of optical continuum emission (>10 years) is correlated with the radio emission from the base of the jet located above the disk, while the optical long-term variations (1-2 years) follows the radio flares from the stationary component in the jet with time delay of about 1 year. This stationary feature is most likely to be a standing shock formed in the continuous relativistic flow seen at a distance of ~0.4 parsecs from the base of the jet. To account for the correlations observed we propose a model of the nuclear region of 3C 390.3 in which the beamed continuum emission from the jet and counterjet ionizes material in a subrelativistic outflow surrounding the jet. This results in the formation of two conical regions with double-peaked broad emission lines (in addition to the conventional broad line region around the central nucleus) at a distance ~0.6 parsecs from the central engine.
