摘要:

我们正在领导一项对34颗伽马射线明亮耀变体的全面多波段监测计划,旨在定位从无线电到伽马射线频率的耀变体发射区域。这些“地图”由VLBA以~ 0.1毫角秒的角分辨率获得的总强度和偏振强度的图像序列锚定。时变线性偏振在无线电光学波长和无线电伽马射线光变曲线,使我们能够指定的位置耀斑相对于明亮的固定功能中看到的图像和推断的几何形状的磁场在不同地区的喷流。我们的数据表明,一些耀斑同时发生在不同的波段和其他人只看到在某些频率。在VLBA影像上,耀斑通常是由一个超光速结穿过静止的“核心”而触发的。其他耀斑发生在核心的上游甚至秒差距下游。

英文摘要:

We are leading a comprehensive multi-waveband monitoring program of 34 gamma-ray bright blazars designed to locate the emission regions of blazars from radio to gamma-ray frequencies. The "maps" are anchored by sequences of images in both total and polarized intensity obtained with the VLBA at an angular resolution of ~ 0.1 milliarcseconds. The time-variable linear polarization at radio to optical wavelengths and radio to gamma-ray light curves allow us to specify the locations of flares relative to bright stationary features seen in the images and to infer the geometry of the magnetic field in different regions of the jet. Our data reveal that some flares occur simultaneously at different wavebands and others are only seen at some of the frequencies. The flares are often triggered by a superluminal knot passing through the stationary "core" on the VLBA images. Other flares occur upstream or even parsecs downstream of the core.
