摘要:

非线性效应是影响快速射电暴(FRB)在近源传播的重要因素。我们研究的相对论风的磁星,这是通常调用的最自然的FRB的祖先FRB的取向。由于磁致伸缩,粒子数密度和辐射强度沿着风磁场的方向形成强梯度。当等离子体压力与有质动力平衡时,就达到了稳定状态。在这种稳定状态下,粒子被限制在周期性间隔的薄片中,电磁波在它们之间传播,就像在波导中一样。我们证明:(i)色散关系类似于初始均匀等离子体中的色散关系,但有效等离子体频率由片的分离决定,而不是直接由平均粒子密度决定。(ii)相对论磁星风对FRB色散测量的贡献可能比以前认为的大几个数量级。风的色散测量取决于单个爆发的属性(例如光度),因此可以在重复FRB的不同爆发之间显着变化。(iii)由于大部分辐射在近真空区传播,感生康普顿散射被抑制。

英文摘要:

Nonlinear effects are crucial for the propagation of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) near the source. We study the filamentation of FRBs in the relativistic winds of magnetars, which are commonly invoked as the most natural FRB progenitors. As a result of filamentation, the particle number density and the radiation intensity develop strong gradients along the direction of the wind magnetic field. A steady state is reached when the plasma pressure balances the ponderomotive force. In such a steady state, particles are confined into periodically spaced thin sheets, and electromagnetic waves propagate between them as in a waveguide. We show that: (i) The dispersion relation resembles that in the initial homogeneous plasma, but the effective plasma frequency is determined by the separation of the sheets, not directly by the mean particle density. (ii) The contribution of relativistic magnetar winds to the dispersion measure of FRBs could be several orders of magnitude larger than previously thought. The dispersion measure of the wind depends on the properties of individual bursts (e.g. the luminosity), and therefore can change significantly among different bursts from repeating FRBs. (iii) Induced Compton scattering is suppressed because most of the radiation propagates in near vacuum regions.
