伽马射线暴的VERITAS观测

VERITAS Observation of Gamma-Ray Bursts

Nicola Galante

摘要:

在第一个观测周期,VERITAS观测到了几个伽马射线暴,以响应伽马射线暴坐标网的广播警报。伽马射线暴被跟踪观察,从爆发开始到最好的情况下,一般延迟2到4分钟,最好的情况下延迟92秒,寻找100 GeV以上的甚高能量(VHE)成分。寻找伽玛暴VHE辐射的目的是为了了解伽玛暴中加速最快的粒子的行为、组成和动力学,以及更好地全面了解伽玛暴的模型。我们报告的结果,从两年的观察VERITAS。

英文摘要:

During its first cycle of observations, VERITAS observed several GRBs in response to broadcast alerts from the Gamma-ray bursts Coordinates Network (GCN). The GRBs were followed up and observed thereafter with typical delays of 2 to 4 minutes from the beginning of the burst and of 92 s in the best case, searching for a very high energy (VHE) component above 100 GeV. The aim of the search for VHE emission from GRBs is to understand the behavior, composition and dynamics of the most accelerated particles in the bursts, as well as to get a better overall understanding of the model of GRBs. We report on the results from two years of observations by VERITAS.
