Particle Acceleration and gamma-ray emission due to magnetic reconnection around the core region of radio galaxies

摘要:

目前的探测器的伽玛射线发射,特别是在TeV的能量有太差的分辨率,以确定这种排放是否产生在喷流或核心,特别是低亮度,非耀变体AGN(如射电星系)。在最近的工作中已经发现,在这些源的核心区域中的湍流快速磁重联事件所释放的功率足以再现所观察到的伽马射线光度。此外,用测试粒子进行的三维MHD模拟表明,嵌入湍流的重联点内的一阶费米过程导致非常有效的粒子加速率。我们在这里计算的光谱能量分布(SED)从无线电到伽玛射线的无线电星系的能量发射高达TeVs已被检测到(即,M87,Cen A,每A,和IC 310)。为此,我们采用了上述的加速模型,并考虑了所有相关的轻子和强子损失过程的核心区域的源。我们发现,计算的SED匹配非常好,特别是与VHE观测,因此加强了上述结论,有利于这些源的VHE排放的核心排放源。该模型还自然地解释了观察到的VHE排放的非常快的变化。

英文摘要:

The current detectors of gamma-ray emission specially at TeV energies have too poor resolution to determine whether this emission is produced in the jet or in the core, particularly of low luminous, non-blazar AGNs (like radio galaxies). In recent works it has been found that the power released by events of turbulent fast magnetic reconnection in the core region of these sources is more than sufficient to reproduce the observed gamma-ray luminosities. Besides, 3D MHD simulations with test particles have demonstrated that a first-order Fermi process within reconnection sites with embedded turbulence results very efficient particle acceleration rates. We computed here the spectral energy distribution (SED) from radio to gamma-rays of the radio galaxies for which energy emission up to TeVs has been detected (namely, M87, Cen A, Per A, and IC 310). For this aim, we employed the acceleration model above and considered all the relevant leptonic and hadronic loss processes around the core region of the sources. We found that the calculated SEDs match very well specially with the VHE observations, therefore strengthening the conclusions above in favour of a core emission origin for the VHE emission of these sources. The model also naturally explains the observed very fast variability of the VHE emission.
