Andromeda galaxy的Gamma-ray图像重建

Gamma-ray image reconstruction of the Andromeda galaxy

Celine Armand, Francesca Calore

摘要:

我们分析了仙女座星系(M31)方向上大约12年的费米LAT数据。我们鲁棒地描述其光谱和形态学特性对系统的不确定性有关的银河系漫发射的建模。我们通过调整和利用skyFACT自适应模板拟合算法的潜力来执行这项工作。我们重建的伽马射线图像的M31在一个模板无关的方式,我们表明,平面空间模型是首选的数据,表示扩展的$γ$ -射线发射约0.3-0.4度的凸起的M31。这项研究还表明,第二个组成部分,延伸到至少1度,有助于观察到的总排放量。我们量化了与银河前景发射错误建模相关的系统不确定性,其水平为2.9%。

英文摘要:

We analyze about 12 years of Fermi-LAT data in the direction of the Andromeda galaxy (M31). We robustly characterize its spectral and morphological properties against systematic uncertainties related to the modeling of the Galactic diffuse emission. We perform this work by adapting and exploiting the potential of the skyFACT adaptive template fitting algorithm. We reconstruct the gamma-ray image of M31 in a template-independent way, and we show that flat spatial models are preferred by data, indicating an extension of the $γ$-ray emission of about 0.3-0.4 degree for the bulge of M31. This study also suggests that a second component, extending to at least 1 degree, contributes to the observed total emission. We quantify systematic uncertainties related to mis-modeling of Galactic foreground emission at the level of 2.9%.
