快速射电暴的多波长余辉

Multi-wavelength afterglows of fast radio bursts

Shuang-Xi Yi, He Gao, Bing Zhang

摘要:

快速射电暴(FRB)的物理性质尚未确定。探测其他波长的电磁对应物对于测量它们的距离和确定它们的物理性质至关重要。假设其中至少有一些是宇宙学的起源,我们计算它们的余辉光变曲线在多波长(X射线,光学和无线电)通过假设它们的总动能和红移的范围。我们专注于前向激波发射,但也考虑到其中一些可能有明亮的反向激波发射的可能性。一般来说,FRB的余辉太微弱,以至于不能被现有的探测器探测到。只有当FRB在无线电中具有非常低的辐射效率(因此,具有非常大的动能),并且当它足够接近时,才能在光学和无线电波段中检测到它的余辉。我们讨论了使用未来的望远镜,如LSST和EVLA来探测这些微弱的余辉的观测策略。

英文摘要:

The physical nature of fast radio bursts (FRBs) is not identified. Detecting electromagnetic counterparts in other wavelengths is essential to measure their distances and to settle down their physical nature. Assuming that at least some of them are of a cosmological origin, we calculate their afterglow lightcurves in multi-wavelengths (X-rays, optical and radio) by assuming a range of their total kinetic energies and redshifts. We focus on forward shock emission, but also consider the possibility that some of them might have bright reverse shock emission. In general, the FRB afterglows are too faint to be detected by current detectors. Only if an FRB has a very low radiative efficiency in radio (hence, a very large kinetic energy), and when it is close enough, can its afterglow be detected in the optical and radio bands. We discuss observational strategies to detect these faint afterglows using future telescopes such as LSST and EVLA.
