散射和吸收引起的宇宙微波背景的光学厚度
Optical Depth of the Cosmic Microwave Background due to Scattering and Absorption
摘要:
结果表明,在部分电离的宇宙等离子体中,除了汤姆逊散射外,电子-电子、电子-离子和电子-原子碰撞引起的吸收也对宇宙微波背景(CMB)的光学厚度有贡献。吸收深度取决于等离子体温度和CMB辐射的频率。吸收效应在CMB谱的低频部分是突出的。当这些影响被包括在对CMB光谱的解释中时,可能需要对宇宙电离的观点进行修正。
英文摘要:
It is shown that, in addition to the Thomson scattering, the absorption due to the electron-electron, electron-ion and the electron -atom collisions in a partially ionized cosmic plasma would also contribute to the optical depth of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The absorption depth depends on the plasma temperature and frequency of the CMB radiation. The absorption effects are prominent at the low frequency part of the CMB spectrum. These effects when included in the interpretation of the CMB spectrum may necessitate a revised view of the ioniziation of the universe.
