摘要:

本文报道了我们最近对高频BL Lac天体Mrk 421在不同光度状态下的光谱能量分布(SED)的研究。我们使用了一个成熟的chi 2最小化程序,而不是更常用的“眼球”适合模拟所观察到的源通量(从光学到非常高的能量),与同步自康普顿(SSC)发射机制。研究表明,同步辐射功率和峰值频率随源活动的变化而保持不变,磁场随源活动的增加而减小,而电子谱的破缺能和多普勒因子则随源活动的增加而增大。由于较低的磁场和较高的电子密度导致电子-光子散射效率增加,因此康普顿功率增加,总发射也增加。

英文摘要:

Here we report our recent study on the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the high frequency BL Lac object Mrk 421 in different luminosity states. We used a full-fledged chi2-minimization procedure instead of more commonly used "eyeball" fit to model the observed flux of the source (from optical to very high energy), with a Synchrotron-Self-Compton (SSC) emission mechanism. Our study shows that the synchrotron power and peak frequency remain constant with varying source activity, and the magnetic field decreases with the source activity while the break energy of electron spectrum and the Doppler factor increase. Since a lower magnetic field and higher density of electrons result in increased electron-photon scattering efficiency, the Compton power increases, so does the total emission.
