摘要:

我们研究了BL Lac天体B32247 +381在高光学态的非热喷流发射。MAGIC望远镜在2010年9月30日至10月30日期间的13个夜晚对该源进行了观测,共收集了14.2小时的高质量甚高能量(VHE)$γ$射线数据。利用Swift卫星的X射线观测和KVA望远镜的光学R波段观测同时获得了多波长数据。我们还使用高能$γ$射线(HE,0.1 GeV-100 GeV)的费米卫星的数据。BL Lac天体B3 2247+381(z=0.119)首次在VHE $γ$ -射线上被探测到,统计显著性为5.6 $σ$。测定了光子指数为-3.2 $\pm$ 0.6的软VHE光谱。没有发现明显的短期通量变化。我们使用一个单区SSC模型来模拟光谱能量分布,它可以成功地描述我们的数据。

英文摘要:

We study the non-thermal jet emission of the BL Lac object B3 2247+381 during a high optical state. The MAGIC telescopes observed the source during 13 nights between September 30th and October 30th 2010, collecting a total of 14.2 hours of good quality very high energy (VHE) $γ$-ray data. Simultaneous multiwavelength data was obtained with X-ray observations by the Swift satellite and optical R-band observations at the KVA-telescope. We also use high energy $γ$-ray (HE, 0.1 GeV-100 GeV) data from the Fermi satellite. The BL Lac object B3 2247+381 (z=0.119) was detected, for the first time, at VHE $γ$-rays at a statistical significance of 5.6 $σ$. A soft VHE spectrum with a photon index of -3.2 $\pm$ 0.6 was determined. No significant short term flux variations were found. We model the spectral energy distribution using a one-zone SSC-model, which can successfully describe our data.
