摘要:

人马座A*(Sgr A*)是位于银河系中心的超大质量黑洞。这是我们在2007年4月开展的广泛的多波长运动的主要目标。在这里,我们报告了4月4日在地平线附近同时观测到的X射线(XMM/EPIC)和近红外(VLT/NACO)1-2小时的明亮耀斑。这是第一次,这样的事件也受益于软伽马射线(INTEGRAL/ISGRI)和中红外(VLT/VISIR)的覆盖范围,这使我们能够推导出耀斑光谱能量分布(SED)两端的上限。我们讨论了同步光变曲线的物理意义,以及SED,在同步,同步自康普顿和外部康普顿发射过程。

英文摘要:

Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) is the supermassive black hole residing at the center of the Milky Way. It has been the main target of an extensive multiwavelength campaign we carried out in April 2007. Herein, we report the detection of a bright flare from the vicinity of the horizon, observed simultaneously in X-rays (XMM/EPIC) and near infrared (VLT/NACO) on April 4th for 1-2 h. For the first time, such an event also benefitted from a soft gamma-rays (INTEGRAL/ISGRI) and mid infrared (VLT/VISIR) coverage, which enabled us to derive upper limits at both ends of the flare spectral energy distribution (SED). We discuss the physical implications of the contemporaneous light curves as well as the SED, in terms of synchrotron, synchrotron self-Compton and external Compton emission processes.
