黑洞自旋在FSRQ/BL Lac二分法中起关键作用吗?

Does black hole spin play a key role in the FSRQ/BL Lac dichotomy?

Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

摘要:

人们相信,从耀变体(平谱射电类星体(FSRQs)和BL Lac)中出现的喷流几乎与视线对齐。BL Lac通常表现出较低的光度和更硬的伽玛射线能量的幂律谱比FSRQ。以前有人认为,吸积速率的差异是造成它们之间观测到的光度不匹配的主要原因。然而,当通过校正聚束效应获得固有亮度时,这种失配显著减小。我们发现,自旋起着重要的作用,揭示了二分性的亮度分布之间的BL Lacs和FSRQs,这表明BL Lacs是低亮度和慢旋转FSRQs相比。

英文摘要:

It is believed that jets emerging from blazars (Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs) and BL Lacs) are almost aligned to the line-of-sight. BL Lacs usually exhibit lower luminosity and harder power law spectra at gamma-ray energies than FSRQs. It was argued previously that the difference in accretion rates is mainly responsible for the large observed luminosity mismatch between them. However, when intrinsic luminosities are derived by correcting for beaming effects, this mismatch is significantly reduced. We show that spin plays an important role to reveal the dichotomy of luminosity distributions between BL Lacs and FSRQs, suggesting BL Lacs to be low luminous and slow rotators compared to FSRQs.
