在吸积盘辐射场中来自IC $e^\pm$对级联的γ射线:对CenA的应用

Gamma-rays from the IC $e^\pm$ pair cascade in the radiation field of an accretion disk: Application to CenA

J. Sitarek, W. Bednarek

摘要:

来自活动星系的TeV $γ$ -射线发射的非常短的时间尺度变化表明粒子的加速过程和初级$γ$ -射线的产生可能发生在相对靠近吸积盘的地方。本文计算了由注入到吸积盘表面附近的初级$γ$射线引发的逆康普顿$γ$对级联中产生的$γ$射线谱。还考虑了次级级联$e^\pm$对可能的同步辐射能量损失。由于软辐射场是各向异性的,所得到的$γ$射线谱强烈地依赖于观察角度。我们研究了它们的基本性质,不同的参数描述这样的模型。该模型被应用到最近发现的TeV $γ$射线的未对准耀变体Cen A。我们得出结论的网站上的$γ$ -射线发射区域在Cen A的基础上的比较模型与观测的这个源的GeV-TeV的能量范围。

英文摘要:

The very short time scale variability of TeV $γ$-ray emission from active galaxies suggests that the acceleration process of particles and the production of primary $γ$-rays likely occurs relatively close to the accretion disk. We calculate the $γ$-ray spectra produced in an Inverse Compton $e^\pm$ pair cascade initiated by primary $γ$-rays which are injected close to the surface of the accretion disk. Possible synchrotron energy losses of secondary cascade $e^\pm$ pairs are also taken into account. Since the soft radiation field is anisotropic, the resulting $γ$-ray spectra strongly depend on the observation angle. We investigate their basic properties for different parameters describing such a model. The model is applied to the misaligned blazar Cen A recently detected in the TeV $γ$-rays. We conclude on the site of the $γ$-ray emission region in Cen A based on the comparison of the model with the observations of this source in the GeV-TeV energy range.
