摘要:

我们介绍了BL Lacertae对象OJ 287在光学,紫外线和X射线波段的时间和光谱研究结果,以及Swift卫星在2019年9月至2020年3月期间进行的观测。在此期间,源显示出中等的可变性,其特征是在短时间尺度上所有波长的可变幅度为$\sim$ 22- 31%,除了硬X射线带,其可变幅度仅为$\sim$ 8%。我们观察到,该源的X射线通量显着占主导地位的软光子低于$2$ keV。在光学/UV和软X射线发射之间检测到$\sim$ 45天的软滞后,而硬X射线和较低能带之间没有相关性,表明存在两种发射成分或电子群。虽然两个组件有助于X射线发射,大多数的0.3- 10 keV的光谱很好地符合吸收幂律模型,概述了同步加速器的优势,逆康普顿(IC)机制。X射线光谱遵循一个弱的“更亮时更软”的趋势。

英文摘要:

We present the results of a temporal and spectral study of the BL Lacertae object OJ 287 in optical, UV, and X-ray bands with observations performed by Swift satellite during September 2019--March 2020. In this period, the source showed moderate variability characterized by variability amplitude of $\sim$22--31% in all the wavelengths on a short timescale, except the hard X-ray band which was variable by only $\sim$8%. We observed that the X-ray flux of the source was significantly dominated by the soft photons below $2$ keV. Soft lags of $\sim$45 days were detected between the optical/UV and soft X-ray emissions, while there is no correlation between the hard X-rays and the lower energy bands indicating the presence of two emission components or electron populations. Although two components contribute to the X-ray emission, most of the 0.3--10 keV spectra were well fitted with an absorbed power-law model which outlines the dominance of synchrotron over inverse Compton (IC) mechanism. The X-ray spectra follow a weak "softer when brighter" trend.
