摘要:

我们考虑的伽马射线暴(GRB)的中央引擎,是由一个大质量的旋转恒星或紧凑的双合并崩溃。发动机是一个热而致密的吸积盘,它由自由核子、电子-正电子对和氦组成,并由中微子发射冷却。在内盘体中的中子的显着的数密度提供了条件,在伽玛射线暴流出或射流中的富中子等离子体。如果吸积率很大,氦会在内盘中合成,重核也会在距离黑洞150-250 $r_{g}$的外盘中形成。我们研究的过程中的伽玛射线暴引擎,根据其物理特性。伽玛射线暴的中央发动机是在一个密集和热盘的框架中进行流体动力学建模的,该盘以高速率(每秒高达1个太阳质量)吸积到最大旋转的恒星质量的黑洞上。重核的合成直到锗和镓,然后是核反应网络。克尔黑洞的高速吸积为引擎活动提供了动力,并为盘中重核的有效合成创造了条件。这些过程可能具有重要的观测意义的喷流减速过程中观察到的伽玛暴余辉谱中的重元素。

英文摘要:

We consider the gamma ray burst (GRB) central engine that is powered by the collapse of a massive rotating star or compact binary merger. The engine is a hot and dense accretion disk, which is composed of free nucleons, electron-positron pairs, and helium, and cooled by neutrino emission. A significant number density of neutrons in the inner disk body provide conditions for neutron rich plasma in the GRB outflows or jets. Helium is synthesized in the inner disk if the accretion rate is large, and heavy nuclei are also formed in the outer disk at distances above 150-250 $r_{g}$ from the black hole. We study the process of nucleosynthesis in the GRB engine, depending on its physical properties. The GRB central engine is hydrodynamically modeled in the frame of a dense and hot disk which accretes with a high rate (up to 1 Solar mass per second) onto a maximally spinning, stellar mass black hole. The synthesis of heavy nuclei up to germanium and gallium is then followed by the nuclear reaction network. The accretion at high rate onto a Kerr black hole feeds the engine activity and establishes conditions for efficient synthesis of heavy nuclei in the disk. These processes may have important observational implications for the jet deceleration process and heavy elements observed in the spectra of GRB afterglows.
