二次发射是TeV耀变体硬光谱起源的证据

Evidence for the Secondary Emission as the Origin of Hard Spectra in TeV Blazars

Y. G. Zheng, T. Kang

摘要:

我们开发了一个模型,从遥远的耀变体硬很高的能量谱的可能来源。在该模型中,源中产生的初级光子和源外产生的次级光子都对观测到的高能$γ$射线发射有贡献。也就是说,初级光子通过同步加速器自康普顿(SSC)过程在源中产生,并且次级光子通过沿着视线的高能质子与背景光子的相互作用在源外部产生。我们应用该模型的一个特征的情况下,非常高的能量(VHE)$γ$ -射线的排放在遥远的blazar 1 ES 1101-232。假设一个合适的电子和质子光谱,我们得到很好的拟合遥远的blazar 1 ES 1101-232的观测光谱。这表明,高能$γ$射线的惊人的低衰减,特别是对于观测光谱的非常高的能量$γ$射线尾部的形状,可以用宇宙射线质子与星系际空间背景光子相互作用产生的次级$γ$射线来解释。

英文摘要:

We develop a model for a possible origin of hard very high energy spectra from a distant blazar. In the model, both the primary photons produced in the source and secondary photons produced outside the source contribute to the observed high energy $γ$-rays emission. That is, the primary photons are produced in the source through the synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) process, and the secondary photons are produced outside the source through high energy protons interaction with the background photons along the line of sight. We apply the model to a characteristic case was the very high energy (VHE) $γ$-ray emissions in distant blazar 1ES 1101-232. Assuming a suitable electron and proton spectra, we obtain excellent fits to observed spectra of distant blazar 1ES 1101-232. This indicated that the surprisingly low attenuation of high energy $γ$-rays, especially for the shape of the very high energy $γ$-rays tail of the observed spectra, can be explained by secondary $γ$-rays produced in interactions of cosmic-ray protons with background photons in the intergalactic space.
