RAiSE X:在X射线巡天中寻找射电星系

RAiSE X: searching for radio galaxies in X-ray surveys

Ross J. Turner, Stanislav S. Shabala

摘要:

我们模拟了Fanaroff & Riley II型射电星系的X射线表面亮度分布。我们的方法建立在RAiSE动力学模型的基础上,该模型描述了在广泛的环境中喷气膨胀叶的宽带射频同步加速器演化。这里提出的X射线模型包括:(1)宇宙微波背景辐射的逆康普顿上散射;(2)冲击气体壳层的动力学和相关的韧致辐射;(3)来自周围环境介质的辐射。我们构建的X射线表面亮度地图的模拟目录的扩展FR-II的eRosita望远镜的技术特点的基础上。积分X射线光度函数在低红移($z\leqslant1$)被发现与周围介质的密度,但最有活力的来源,而在高红移($z>1$)的大多数对象是占主导地位的逆康普顿瓣发射由于较强的宇宙微波背景辐射。通过检查我们的模拟空间亮度分布,我们得出结论,任何扩展的X射线检测可以归因于活动星系核活动的红移$z\geqslant1$。我们比较了eRosita和LOFAR的活动和残余高红移射电活动星系核的预期检测率,以及未来更敏感的调查。我们发现,在$z>2.2$的射频上,使用X射线波长可以检测到10倍以上的残余物,对于红移$z>3.1$,增加到100倍。

英文摘要:

We model the X-ray surface brightness distribution of emission associated with Fanaroff & Riley type-II radio galaxies. Our approach builds on the RAiSE dynamical model which describes broadband radio-frequency synchrotron evolution of jet-inflated lobes in a wide range of environments. The X-ray version of the model presented here includes: (1) inverse-Compton upscattering of cosmic microwave background radiation; (2) the dynamics of the shocked gas shell and associated bremsstrahlung radiation; and (3) emission from the surrounding ambient medium. We construct X-ray surface brightness maps for a mock catalogue of extended FR-IIs based on the technical characteristics of the eRosita telescope. The integrated X-ray luminosity function at low redshifts ($z\leqslant1$) is found to strongly correlate with the density of the ambient medium in all but the most energetic sources, whilst at high-redshift ($z>1$) the majority of objects are dominated by inverse-Compton lobe emission due to the stronger cosmic microwave background radiation. By inspecting our mock spatial brightness distributions, we conclude that any extended X-ray detection can be attributed to AGN activity at redshifts $z\geqslant1$. We compare the expected detection rates of active and remnant high-redshift radio AGNs for eRosita and LOFAR, and future more sensitive surveys. We find that a factor of ten more remnants can be detected using X-ray wavelengths over radio frequencies at $z>2.2$, increasing to a factor of 100 for redshifts $z>3.1$.
