We report on the X-ray emission from the radio jet of 3C 17 from Chandra observations and compare the X-ray emission with radio maps from the VLA archive and with the optical-IR archival images from the Hubble Space Telescope. X-ray detections of two knots in the 3C 17 jet are found and both of these features have optical counterparts. We derive the spectral energy distribution for the knots in the jet and give source parameters required for the various X-ray emission models, finding that both IC/CMB and synchrotron are viable to explain the high energy emission. A curious optical feature (with no radio or X-ray counterparts) possibly associated with the 3C 17 jet is described. We also discuss the use of curved jets for the problem of identifying inverse Compton X-ray emission via scattering on CMB photons.

伽马射线暴的曲率效应一直是人们关注的焦点。在准直的相对论伽玛射线暴喷流中,相对于观测者离轴的光子到达的时间比轴上的光子晚,并且预计光谱也会更软。在这项工作中,我们调用了一个相对简单的运动学两壳碰撞模型的均匀喷流剖面,并比较其预测的伽玛射线暴辐射数据的观测已归因于曲率效应,如峰值通量-峰值频率关系,即,伽玛暴脉冲衰减相的$ν$ F $_ν$通量与谱峰E $_{pk}$和谱滞后之间的关系。此外,我们探讨了脉冲宽度与能量的行为。我们提出的情况下,单脉冲费米伽玛暴110920,作为一个测试的预测模型对观测。
