伽玛暴发射场的瞬发光发射和同步辐射自吸收约束

Prompt optical emission and synchrotron self-absorption constraints on emission site of GRBs

Rong-Feng Shen, Bing Zhang

摘要:

我们约束的距离伽马射线暴(GRB)提示发射现场从爆炸中心,R,通过确定的位置,电子的自吸收频率的伽玛射线暴提示光-X/伽玛射线的光谱能量分布,假设光学和伽玛射线的发射是在同一个同步辐射连续的一组热电子。在我们的分析中考虑了所有可能的光谱制度。该方法只有两个假设参数,即发射源γ的体洛伦兹因子和发射区的磁场强度B(具有弱的依赖性)。我们确定了满足以下三个标准的4个爆发的小样本:(1)它们都在多个观测时间间隔内同时具有光学和伽马射线探测;(2)它们都显示出光学和伽马射线光变曲线之间的时间相关性;(3)光学发射与伽马射线发射属于相同的光谱分量一致。对于这4个爆发的所有时间间隔,推断R \geq 10^{1/4}(Gamma/300)^{3/4}(B/10 ^5 Gauss)^{1/4} cm。对于样品的一小部分,对于Gamma ~ 300,约束可被固定到R \approx 10^{14} - 10^{15} cm。对于具有即时光学非检测的爆发的第二样本,仅可以获得R的上限。我们没有发现这个非检测样本的R-约束和检测样本的R-约束之间的不一致。

英文摘要:

We constrain the distance of the Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) prompt emission site from the explosion centre, R, by determining the location of the electron's self absorption frequency in the GRB prompt optical-to-X/gamma-ray spectral energy distribution, assuming that the optical and the gamma-ray emissions are among the same synchrotron radiation continuum of a group of hot electrons. All possible spectral regimes are considered in our analysis. The method has only two assumed parameters, namely, the bulk Lorentz factor of the emitting source Gamma, and the magnetic field strength B in the emission region (with a weak dependence). We identify a small sample of 4 bursts that satisfy the following three criteria: (1) they all have simultaneous optical and gamma-ray detections in multiple observational time intervals; (2) they all show temporal correlations between the optical and gamma-ray light curves; and (3) the optical emission is consistent with belonging to the same spectral component as the gamma-ray emission. For all the time intervals of these 4 bursts, it is inferred that R \geq 10^{14} (Gamma/300)^{3/4} (B/10^5 Gauss)^{1/4} cm. For a small fraction of the sample, the constraint can be pinned down to R \approx 10^{14} - 10^{15} cm for Gamma ~ 300. For a second sample of bursts with prompt optical non-detections, only upper limits on R can be obtained. We find no inconsistency between the R-constraints for this non-detection sample and those for the detection sample.
