摘要:

在伽玛射线发射的经典新星的冲击预计将产生明亮的热和非热X射线。我们测试这一预测与同时NuSTAR和费米/LAT观测新星V906车,表现出最明亮的GeV的伽马射线发射到目前为止。新星在硬X射线中被探测到,而它仍然是伽马射线明亮的,但与简单的理论预期相反,V906 Car探测到的3.5-78 keV发射比同时观测到的>100 MeV发射弱得多。没有检测到非热X射线发射,我们的深度极限意味着伽马射线可能是强子的。在校正了大量吸收(N_H ~ 2 x 10^23 cm^-2)之后,热X射线亮度(来自9 keV的光学薄等离子体)仅为伽马射线亮度的~2%。我们考虑了低热X射线亮度的可能解释,包括X射线被波纹状的辐射激波阵面所抑制,或者来自产生伽马射线的激波的X射线被隐藏在更大的吸收柱(N_H > 10 ^25 cm^-2)之后。将XMM-牛顿和Swift/XRT观测结果添加到我们的分析中,我们发现内在X射线吸收的演化要求新星壳在爆发开始后24天被驱逐。X射线谱表明,喷出物中的氮和氧含量增加,新星发生在CO型白矮星的表面。我们在X射线光变曲线中没有看到明显的超软相的迹象,在考虑了吸收效应之后,这可能表明新星所在的白矮星质量很低。

英文摘要:

Shocks in gamma-ray emitting classical novae are expected to produce bright thermal and non-thermal X-rays. We test this prediction with simultaneous NuSTAR and Fermi/LAT observations of nova V906 Car, which exhibited the brightest GeV gamma-ray emission to date. The nova is detected in hard X-rays while it is still gamma-ray bright, but contrary to simple theoretical expectations, the detected 3.5-78 keV emission of V906 Car is much weaker than the simultaneously observed >100 MeV emission. No non-thermal X-ray emission is detected, and our deep limits imply that the gamma-rays are likely hadronic. After correcting for substantial absorption (N_H ~ 2 x 10^23 cm^-2), the thermal X-ray luminosity (from a 9 keV optically-thin plasma) is just ~2% of the gamma-ray luminosity. We consider possible explanations for the low thermal X-ray luminosity, including the X-rays being suppressed by corrugated, radiative shock fronts or the X-rays from the gamma-ray producing shock are hidden behind an even larger absorbing column (N_H >10^25 cm^-2). Adding XMM-Newton and Swift/XRT observations to our analysis, we find that the evolution of the intrinsic X-ray absorption requires the nova shell to be expelled 24 days after the outburst onset. The X-ray spectra show that the ejecta are enhanced in nitrogen and oxygen, and the nova occurred on the surface of a CO-type white dwarf. We see no indication of a distinct super-soft phase in the X-ray lightcurve, which, after considering the absorption effects, may point to a low mass of the white dwarf hosting the nova.
