摘要:

Blazar S5 0716+714以其短时间内的变化而闻名。我们在这里介绍了TESS太空望远镜在2019年12月至2020年1月获得的2分钟节奏光学光变曲线,并以前所未有的采样分析了物体的快速变化。全地球Blazar望远镜合作在B,V,R和I波段的支持观测使我们能够研究TESS指向期间的光谱变化。光谱分析的频率进一步扩展到紫外线和X射线波段,数据来自尼尔·格瑞尔斯·斯威夫特天文台。我们开发了一种新的方法来揭示最短的光学变化的时间尺度。这是基于TESS光变曲线的逐步去趋势,通过三次样条插值通过分箱通量,减少时间箱。然后用时间序列分析的经典工具(周期图、自相关和结构函数)分析去趋势光变曲线。结果表明,在3d以下,存在约1.7、0.5和0.2d的显著特征变率时间尺度。< 0.2 d的时间尺度上的变化是强色的,必须归因于内在的能量过程,涉及发射区,可能是喷流子结构,尺寸小于约毫秒差距。相比之下,时间尺度上的流量变化> 0.5天是准消色差的,可能是由于几何起源的多普勒因子的变化。

英文摘要:

Blazar S5 0716+714 is well-known for its short-term variability, down to intra-day time-scales. We here present the 2-min cadence optical light curve obtained by the TESS space telescope in 2019 December - 2020 January and analyse the object fast variability with unprecedented sampling. Supporting observations by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope Collaboration in B, V , R, and I bands allow us to investigate the spectral variability during the TESS pointing. The spectral analysis is further extended in frequency to the UV and X-ray bands with data from the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. We develop a new method to unveil the shortest optical variability time-scales. This is based on progressive de-trending of the TESS light curve by means of cubic spline interpolations through the binned fluxes, with decreasing time bins. The de-trended light curves are then analysed with classical tools for time-series analysis (periodogram, auto-correlation and structure functions). The results show that below 3 d there are significant characteristic variability time-scales of about 1.7, 0.5, and 0.2 d. Variability on time-scales < 0.2 d is strongly chromatic and must be ascribed to intrinsic energetic processes involving emitting regions, likely jet sub-structures, with dimension less than about milliparsec. In contrast, flux changes on time-scales > 0.5 d are quasi-achromatic and are probably due to Doppler factor changes of geometric origin.
