伽马射线暴中的等离子体:粒子加速、磁场、辐射过程和环境

Plasmas in Gamma-Ray Bursts: particle acceleration, magnetic fields, radiative Processes and environments

Asaf Pe'er

摘要:

伽马射线暴(GRB)是宇宙中最极端的爆炸现象,它为研究各种等离子体物理现象提供了一个独特的实验室。复杂的光变曲线和宽波段的非热谱一方面表明了一个非常复杂的体系,另一方面也为研究它提供了丰富的信息。本章重点介绍了一些尚未解决的关键物理问题的最新进展。其中包括:(1)冲击波中粒子加速和磁场产生;(2)强磁场在加速等离子体和通过磁重联过程加速粒子中的可能作用;(3)在瞬发和余辉阶段塑造观测到的光变曲线和光谱的各种辐射过程;(4)伽玛暴环境及其可能的观测特征。

英文摘要:

Being the most extreme explosions in the universe, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) provide a unique laboratory to study various plasma physics phenomena. The complex lightcurve and broad-band, non-thermal spectra indicate a very complicated system on the one hand, but on the other hand provide a wealth of information to study it. In this chapter I focus on recent progress in some of the key unsolved physical problems. These include: (1) Particle acceleration and magnetic field generation in shock waves; (2) Possible role of strong magnetic fields in accelerating the plasmas, and accelerating particles via magnetic reconnection process; (3) Various radiative processes that shape the observed lightcurve and spectra, both during the prompt and the afterglow phases, and finally (4) GRB environments and their possible observational signature.
