摘要:

我们报告了GRB 090926 A宽带光谱在其瞬发阶段的新时间分辨分析,以及在瞬发发射模型框架中的解释。我们使用费米大面积望远镜(LAT)的Pass 8数据来表征GRB 090926 A的高能额外成分,该数据比以往研究中使用的任何数据集都具有更高的灵敏度,特别是在30-100 MeV的能带。然后,我们结合LAT数据与费米伽马射线暴监测器(GBM)的联合频谱拟合,以表征从keV到GeV能量的宽带谱的时间演化。对LAT系统效应给予了密切关注。最后,我们进行了时间分析的光变曲线,我们计算的变化时间尺度期间和之后的明亮的尖峰在10秒后触发。我们的分析证实,并更好地约束在高能量的额外组件,这是以前报道的明亮的尖峰期间的光谱断裂。此外,它揭示了光谱衰减持续在以后的时间,与增加的突破特征能量的GeV域,直到提示阶段结束。我们解释的高能光谱断裂所造成的光子不透明对创建。要求所有的排放产生以上的光球的GRB 090926 A,我们计算出大量的洛伦兹因子的流出,$Γ$。后者从尖峰期间的230下降到即时发射结束时的100。相反,假设谱中断反映逆康普顿谱的自然曲率,则也导出对应于$Γ$的较大值的下限。结合极端的时间变化的伽玛射线暴090926 A,这些洛伦兹因子导致发射半径$R\sim10^{14}$厘米这是一致的内部起源的keV-MeV和GeV的提示排放。

英文摘要:

We report on a new time-resolved analysis of the GRB 090926A broad-band spectrum during its prompt phase, and on its interpretation in the framework of prompt emission models. We characterize the high-energy extra component of GRB 090926A using Pass 8 data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT), which offer a greater sensitivity than any data set used in previous studies of this burst, particularly in the 30-100 MeV energy band. Then, we combine the LAT data with the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) in joint spectral fits in order to characterize the time evolution of the broad-band spectrum from keV to GeV energies. Careful attention is paid to the LAT systematic effects. Finally, we perform a temporal analysis of the light curves and we compute the variability time scales during and after the bright spike at ~10 s post-trigger. Our analysis confirms and better constrains the spectral break in the high-energy extra component, which has been previously reported during the bright spike. Furthermore, it reveals that the spectral attenuation persists at later times, with an increase of the break characteristic energy up to the GeV domain until the end of the prompt phase. We interpret the high-energy spectral break as caused by photon opacity to pair creation. Requiring that all emissions are produced above the photosphere of GRB 090926A, we compute the bulk Lorentz factor of the outflow, $Γ$. The latter decreases from 230 during the spike to 100 at the end of the prompt emission. Assuming, instead, that the spectral break reflects the natural curvature of the inverse Compton spectrum, lower limits corresponding to larger values of $Γ$ are also derived. Combined with the extreme temporal variability of GRB 090926A, these Lorentz factors lead to emission radii $R\sim10^{14}$ cm which are consistent with an internal origin of both the keV-MeV and GeV prompt emissions.
