摘要:

对GRB 080916 C的高能γ射线辐射的费米观测表明,它的能谱与能带函数一致,能量范围从MeV到几十GeV。假设一个单一的发射机制占主导地位,在整个能量范围内,我们表明,这一频谱是一致的同步辐射起源的冲击加速电子。简单的电子逆康普顿模型和强子模型被发现是不太可行的。在同步加速器的情况下,同步自康普顿散射很可能是在克莱因-Nishina制度,因此产生的高能量发射是次优势,即使磁场能量密度低于相对论电子。Klein-Nishina逆康普顿冷却也可能影响低能电子数分布,从而导致低于峰值能量的低能同步光子谱$n(ν)\proptoν^{-1}$。在电子同步辐射解释的框架下,我们约束了激波的微物理参数,并推导出上游磁场的下限。在GRB 080916 C的源坐标系中,如果相对论外流的大部分洛伦兹因子不明显大于数千,则同步辐射的探测延伸到约70 GeV,这有利于玻姆扩散激波加速。

英文摘要:

Fermi observations of high-energy gamma-ray emission from GRB 080916C shows that its spectrum is consistent with the Band function from MeV to tens of GeV. Assuming one single emission mechanism dominates in the whole energy range, we show that this spectrum is consistent with synchrotron origin by shock-accelerated electrons. The simple electron inverse-Compton model and the hadronic model are found to be less viable. In the synchrotron scenario, the synchrotron self-Compton scattering is likely to be in the Klein-Nishina regime and therefore the resulting high-energy emission is subdominant, even though the magnetic field energy density is lower than that in relativistic electrons. The Klein-Nishina inverse-Compton cooling may also affect the low-energy electron number distribution and hence results in a low-energy synchrotron photon spectrum $n(ν)\proptoν^{-1}$ below the peak energy. Under the framework of the electron synchrotron interpretation, we constrain the shock microphysical parameters and derive a lower limit of the upstream magnetic fields. The detection of synchrotron emission extending to about 70 GeV in the source frame in GRB 080916C favors the Bohm diffusive shock acceleration if the bulk Lorentz factor of the relativistic outflow is not significantly greater than thousands.
