BL Lacertae天体3C 66 A的甚高能辐射机制

Mechanism of very high energy radiation in BL Lacertae object 3C 66A

Jianping Yang, Jiancheng Wang

摘要:

我们的目标是通过对blazar 3C 66 A的研究,了解blazar的本质和高能$γ$射线的产生机制。我们模拟了最近用Fermi-LAT和VERITAS望远镜观测到的3C66A的高能谱。在两台望远镜最近几乎同时观测到的能量范围从0.2 - 100 GeV到200 - 500 GeV的光谱有一个很难的变化。去吸收的VERITAS光谱很大程度上取决于红移,这是高度不确定的。如果采用z = 0.444,我们可以使用SSC模型来产生Fermi-LAT分量,使用EC模型来产生VERITAS分量。然而,如果z = 0.1,则本征VERITAS谱将更柔和,费米-LAT和VERITAS谱之间将存在可以使用SSC模型解释的平滑链接。

英文摘要:

Our goal is to understand the nature of blazars and the mechanisms for the generation of high-energy $γ$-rays, through the investigation of the blazar 3C 66A. We model the high energy spectrum of 3C 66A, which has been observed recently with the Fermi-LAT and VERITAS telescope. The spectrum has a hard change from the energy range of 0.2-100 GeV to 200-500 GeV in recent almost contemporaneous observations of two telescopes. The de-absorbed VERITAS spectrum greatly depends on the redshift, which is highly uncertain. If z=0.444 is adopted, we are able to use the SSC model to produce the Fermi-LAT component and the EC model to the VERITAS component. However, if z=0.1, the intrinsic VERITAS spectrum will be softer, there will be a smooth link between the Fermi-LAT and VERITAS spectra which can be explained using a SSC model.
