摘要:

GRB 200219 A是一个持续时间为$\sim 90$ s的短伽马射线暴。通过对{ \em Swift}/BAT和{ \em Fermi}/GBM观测数据的分析,发现截断幂律模型可以很好地拟合$\rm E_{p}=1387^{+232}_{-134}$ keV的初始短脉冲谱。更有趣的是,与EE组件和早期的X射线数据一起,它表现出平稳的平台发射与$\sim t^{-1}$段连接,然后是一个非常陡峭的衰减。由这三段组成的短GRB在{ \em Swift}时代是独一无二的,并且很难用黑洞中心发动机的标准内部/外部激波模型来解释,但可能与NS双星合并的磁星中心发动机的预测一致。我们认为,平台发射后的$\sim t^{-1}$衰变阶段是由毫秒磁星的自旋下降,失去了它的旋转能量,通过GW四极辐射。然后,突然下降衰减是由磁星坍缩成黑洞,然后切换到EM主导的发射。这是第一个短伽马射线暴,其X射线发射具有由磁星通过GW主导的辐射提供动力的有趣特征。如果是这样的话,人们可以估计磁星的物理参数,由磁星供电的GW信号和合并新星发射也进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

GRB 200219A is a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) with an extended emission (EE) lasting $\sim 90$s. By analyzing data observed with the {\em Swift}/BAT and {\em Fermi}/GBM, we find that a cutoff power-law model can adequately fit the spectra of the initial short pulse with $\rm E_{p}=1387^{+232}_{-134}$ keV. More interestingly, together with the EE component and early X-ray data, it exhibits plateau emission smoothly connected with a $\sim t^{-1}$ segment and followed by an extremely steep decay. The short GRB composed of those three segments is unique in the {\em Swift} era and is very difficult to explain with the standard internal/external shock model of a black hole central engine, but could be consistent with the prediction of a magnetar central engine from the merger of an NS binary. We suggest that the plateau emission followed by a $\sim t^{-1}$ decay phase is powered by the spin-down of a millisecond magnetar, which loses its rotation energy via GW quadrupole radiation. Then, the abrupt drop decay is caused by the magnetar collapsing into a black hole before switching to EM-dominated emission. This is the first short GRB for which the X-ray emission has such an intriguing feature powered by a magnetar via GW-dominated radiation. If this is the case, one can estimate the physical parameters of a magnetar, the GW signal powered by a magnetar and the merger-nova emission are also discussed.
