摘要:

我们报告的中红外(MIR)和X射线观测的GRS 1915+105,我们进行了2004年10月2日和2006年6月5日之间的初步结果。我们的主要目标是研究它的可变性,检测尘埃的存在,并调查MIR和X射线发射之间的可能联系。我们使用安装在斯皮策太空望远镜上的IRAC光度计和IRS光谱仪对GRS 1915+105进行了光度和光谱观测。我们用RXTE和INTEGRAL获得的准同步高能数据完成了我们的MIR数据集。在硬态下,我们在GRS 1915+105的MIR光谱中检测到PAH发射特征,这证明了系统中存在尘埃。尘埃证实了在硬态的温暖的MIR过量的宽带光谱能量分布的GRS 1915 - 105的检测。这种过量不能用致密喷流的MIR同步辐射来解释,因为Ryle望远镜在15 GHz时没有检测到GRS 1915+105。我们还表明,GRS 1915+105的MIR发射是强烈可变的,它可能与软X射线发射,因为它在软状态下增加。我们认为,除了尘埃排放,部分的和平号多余的软状态是非热的,可能是由于自由-自由发射的X射线驱动的风或X射线再加工的吸积盘的外部。

英文摘要:

We report preliminary results of mid-infrared (MIR) and X-ray observations of GRS 1915+105 that we carried out between 2004 October 2 and 2006 June 5. Our main goals were to study its variability, to detect the presence of dust, and to investigate the possible links between MIR and X-ray emissions. We performed photometric and spectroscopic observations of GRS 1915+105, using the IRAC photometer and the IRS spectrometer mounted on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We completed our set of MIR data with quasi-simultaneous high-energy data obtained with RXTE and INTEGRAL. In the hard state, we detect PAH emission features in the MIR spectrum of GRS 1915+105, which prove the presence of dust in the system. The dust is confirmed by the detection in the hard state of a warm MIR excess in the broadband spectral energy distribution of GRS 1915 105. This excess cannot be explained by the MIR synchrotron emission from the compact jets as GRS 1915+105 was not detected at 15 GHz with the Ryle telescope. We also show that the MIR emission of GRS 1915+105 is strongly variable; it is likely correlated to the soft X-ray emission as it increases in the soft state. We suggest that, beside the dust emission, part of the MIR excess in the soft state is non-thermal, and could be due either to free-free emission from an X-ray driven wind or X-ray reprocessing in the outer part of the accretion disc.
