窄线Seyfert 1星系的Gamma-ray辐射及其对喷流统一的影响

Gamma-ray emission from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies and implications on the jets unification

Luigi Foschini

摘要:

费米/LAT最近从窄线塞弗特1星系(NLS 1 s)中发现了高能(E>100 MeV)伽马射线,这证明了继耀变体和射电星系之后,存在第三类发射伽马射线的活动星系核(AGN)。现在可以用相对论性喷流来研究一个相当未知的活动星系核的低质量(10^6-8兆太阳)和高吸积率(达到爱丁顿极限)的范围。与银河系致密天体的喷流发射的比较显示了一些惊人的相似之处,表明NLS 1是耀变体的低质量对应物,因为中子星是恒星质量黑洞的低质量喷流系统模拟物。

英文摘要:

The recent discovery by Fermi/LAT of high-energy (E>100 MeV) gamma rays from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies (NLS1s) made evident the existence of a third class of gamma-ray emitting Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), after blazars and radio galaxies. It is now possible to study a rather unexplored range of low masses (10^6-8 Msun) and high accretion rates (up to the Eddington limit) of AGN with relativistic jets. A comparison with the jet emission from Galactic compact objects shows some striking similarities, indicating that NLS1s are the low-mass counterpart of blazars as neutron stars are the low-mass jet systems analogue of stellar mass black holes.
