摘要:

耀变体Mrk 421显示出在TeV能量范围内频繁的短耀斑。由于这些事件的快速性质,我们往往无法获得足够的同时在几个能带的通量变化的信息。为了克服这种缺乏多波长(MWL)覆盖的问题,特别是在耀斑爆发前和爆发后,我们已经建立了一个与FACT望远镜(TeV能量)和Neil Gehrels Swift天文台(X射线)的监测计划。在2019年6月9日,Mrk 421显示了一个TeV的爆发,其通量水平超过蟹状星云在TeV能量下通量的两倍。我们获得了X射线的同步数据,并通过XMM-牛顿和INTEGRAL进行了额外的观测。这是第一次,我们可以研究一个TeV的blazar在爆发利用高灵敏度的X射线数据从XMM牛顿和积分相结合。我们的数据集得到了Effelsberg在GHz频率下的定点射电观测的补充。我们提出了我们的第一个结果,包括γ射线和X射线光变曲线,与XMM-牛顿获得的X射线数据的定时分析,以及耀斑之前,期间和之后的射电光谱。

英文摘要:

The blazar Mrk 421 shows frequent, short flares in the TeV energy regime. Due to the fast nature of such episodes, we often fail to obtain sufficient simultaneous information about flux variations in several energy bands. To overcome this lack of multi-wavelength (MWL) coverage, especially for the pre- and post-flare periods, we have set up a monitoring program with the FACT telescope (TeV energies) and the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (X-rays). On 2019 June 9, Mrk 421 showed a TeV outburst reaching a flux level of more than two times the flux of the Crab Nebula at TeV energies. We acquired simultaneous data in the X-rays with additional observations by XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL. For the first time, we can study a TeV blazar in outburst taking advantage of highly sensitive X-ray data from XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL combined. Our dataset is complemented by pointed radio observations by Effelsberg at GHz frequencies. We present our first results, including the γ-ray and X-ray light curves, a timing analysis of the X-ray data obtained with XMM-Newton , as well as the radio spectra before, during and after the flare.
