摘要:

超新星遗迹G15.4+0.1被认为是伽马射线源HESSJ 1818 -154的可能对应物。为了全面了解这个遗迹并了解伽马射线通量的性质,我们进行了详细的无线电研究,包括寻找脉动和G15.4+0.1/HESSJ 1818 -154系统的宽带发射模型。用巨型米波射电望远镜进行了624兆赫的低频成像,并在624和1404兆赫对G15.4+0.1进行了脉冲星观测。我们将新的无线电数据与分别来自XMM-牛顿和赫歇尔天文台的X射线和红外波长的源观测数据进行了相关。为了描述中性氢介质(HI)朝向G15.4+0.1的特征,我们使用了南银道面巡天的数据。我们使用强子和轻子的情况下模拟的光谱能量分布。从新的GMRT观测与现有的数据相结合,我们得出了一个连续光谱指数α =-0.62+-0.03的整个残留物。G15.4+0.1的局部同步辐射光谱,从GMRT数据与VLA的330 MHz观测的组合计算,往往是平坦的残留物的中心部分,伴随着冲击波冲击分子气体的区域。没有发现光谱指数痕迹表明无线电对应的脉冲星风星云提出的X射线观测。此外,对无线电脉动的搜索也没有得到任何结果。在SNR冲击与密集分子团相互作用的区域中观察到远红外波长的发射。我们还确定了HI特征,其形成包裹G15.4+0.1的大部分外边界的壳。估计了冲击HI气体的特征参数。我们发现,无论是一个纯粹的强子或轻子模型是兼容的宽带发射到目前为止。

英文摘要:

The supernova remnant G15.4+0.1 is considered to be the possible counterpart of the gamma-ray source HESSJ1818-154. With the goal of getting a complete view of this remnant and understanding the nature of the gamma-ray flux, we conducted a detailed radio study that includes the search for pulsations and a model of the broadband emission for the G15.4+0.1/HESSJ1818-154 system. Low-frequency imaging at 624 MHz and pulsar observations at 624 and 1404 MHz towards G15.4+0.1 were carried out with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). We correlated the new radio data with observations of the source at X-ray and infrared wavelengths from XMM-Newton and Herschel observatories, respectively. To characterize the neutral hydrogen medium (HI) towards G15.4+0.1, we used data from the Southern Galactic Plane Survey. We modelled the spectral energy distribution using both hadronic and leptonic scenarios. From the combination of the new GMRT observations with existing data, we derived a continuum spectral index alpha=-0.62+-0.03 for the whole remnant. The local synchrotron spectra of G15.4+0.1, calculated from the combination of the GMRT data with 330 MHz observations from the VLA, tends to be flatter in the central part of the remnant, accompanying the region where the blast wave is impinging molecular gas. No spectral index trace was found indicating the radio counterpart to the pulsar wind nebula proposed from X-ray observations. In addition, the search for radio pulsations yielded negative results. Emission at far-infrared wavelengths is observed in the region where the SNR shock is interacting with dense molecular clumps. We also identified HI features forming a shell that wraps most of the outer border of G15.4+0.1. Characteristic parameters were estimated for the shocked HI gas. We found that either a purely hadronic or leptonic model is compatible with the broadband emission known so far.
