摘要:

我们报告的观测巨脉冲从螃蟹脉冲星同时进行与帕克斯射电望远镜和默奇森宽场阵列(MWA)天线瓦的非相干组合。在Parkes中心频率为1382 MHz、带宽为340 MHz,MWA中心频率为193 MHz、带宽为15 MHz的条件下,进行了约1小时的观测。我们的分析已经导致在MWA和2075在帕克斯的阈值以上的3.5 $σ$和6.5 $σ$分别检测到55个巨脉冲。我们在Parkes射电望远镜上探测到51个MWA巨脉冲的$\%$,光谱指数在$-3.6>α> -4.9$($S_{\rm ν} \propto ν^α$)范围内。我们提出了一个Monte Carlo分析支持的猜想,巨脉冲发射在螃蟹本质上是宽带的,小于$100\%$相关性是由于两个仪器的相对灵敏度和光谱指数分布的宽度。我们的观测结果与巨脉冲谱指数服从标准差为0.6的正态分布的假设是一致的,但平均值随频率的变化从1382 MHz的-3.00到192 MHz的-2.85。

英文摘要:

We report on observations of giant pulses from the Crab pulsar performed simultaneously with the Parkes radio telescope and the incoherent combination of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) antenna tiles. The observations were performed over a duration of approximately one hour at a center frequency of 1382 MHz with 340 MHz bandwidth at Parkes, and at a center frequency of 193 MHz with 15 MHz bandwidth at the MWA. Our analysis has led to the detection of 55 giant pulses at the MWA and 2075 at Parkes above a threshold of 3.5$σ$ and 6.5$σ$ respectively. We detected 51$\%$ of the MWA giant pulses at the Parkes radio telescope, with spectral indices in the range of $-3.6>α> -4.9$ ($S_{\rm ν} \propto ν^α$). We present a Monte Carlo analysis supporting the conjecture that the giant pulse emission in the Crab is intrinsically broadband, the less than $100\%$ correlation being due to the relative sensitivities of the two instruments and the width of the spectral index distribution. Our observations are consistent with the hypothesis that the spectral index of giant pulses is drawn from normal distribution of standard deviation 0.6, but with a mean that displays an evolution with frequency from -3.00 at 1382 MHz, to -2.85 at 192 MHz.
