摘要:

当今天体物理学中最有趣的问题之一是关于活动星系核喷流中MeV、GeV和TeV伽马射线产生的位置和机制。M87是一个特殊的实验室,可以详细研究喷流的性质,因为它离得很近,有一个巨大的黑洞,并且在无线电波波长及以上有明显的辐射。我们在2009年11月开始了一个5 GHz的e-EVN监测计划,在此期间发生了两次能量E > 100 GeV的活动。我们在这里提出这些多历元观测的结果。内喷流和HST-1都在我们的数据集中被检测和解决。其中一个观测结果是在第一次高能耀斑的同一天获得的。HST-1的自行速度在~2005.5的时期出现了明显的变化。在2003年至2005.5年的时间范围内,视速度为亚光速,2005.5年之后为超光速(~ 2.7 c)。

英文摘要:

One of the most intriguing open questions of today's astrophysics is the one concerning the location and the mechanisms for the production of MeV, GeV, and TeV gamma-rays in AGN jets. M87 is a privileged laboratory for a detailed study of the properties of jets, owing to its proximity, its massive black hole, and its conspicuous emission at radio wavelengths and above. We started on November 2009 a monitoring program with the e-EVN at 5 GHz, during which two episodes of activity at energy E > 100 GeV have occured. We present here results of these multi-epoch observations. The inner jet and HST-1 are both detected and resolved in our datasets. One of these observations was obtained at the same day of the first high energy flare. A clear change in the proper motion velocity of HST-1 is present at the epoch ~2005.5. In the time range 2003 -- 2005.5 the apparent velocity is subluminal, and superluminal (~ 2.7c) after 2005.5.
