摘要:

本文研究了发生在活动星系核吸积盘的中子星-中子星(NS-NS)或中子星-黑洞(NS-BH)合并喷出物的动力学和电磁(EM)特征。我们发现,喷出物和盘气体之间的相互作用导致的动力学和辐射的重要影响。我们展示了喷出物动力学的五个阶段:重力减速,滑行,Sedov-Taylor减速,从磁盘表面突破后的重新加速,动量守恒雪犁阶段。同时,喷出物的辐射非常明亮,其典型的峰值亮度达到$10^{43}-10^{44}~\rm erg~s^{-1}$的几倍。由于大部分的辐射能量是从合并喷出物的动能转换而来的,我们称这种爆炸现象为相互作用千诺瓦(IKN)。应该强调的是,IKNe是非常有前途的,明亮的EM对应的NS NS/BH NS合并事件在活动星系核盘。明亮的峰值亮度和长的上升时间(即,紫外波段10到20天,光学波段30到50天,红外波段100到100天),使得大多数巡天望远镜有足够的时间来探测IKN。然而,IKN的峰值亮度,峰值时间和光变曲线的演化模式与星系核中的超亮超新星和潮汐破裂事件相似,因此很难区分它们。但它也表明IKNe可能存在于记录的活动星系核瞬变中。

英文摘要:

We investigate the dynamics and electromagnetic (EM) signatures of neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) or neutron star-black hole (NS-BH) merger ejecta that occurs in the accretion disk of an active galactic nucleus (AGN). We find that the interaction between ejecta and disk gas leads to important effects on the dynamics and radiation. We show five stages of the ejecta dynamics: gravitational slowing down, coasting, Sedov-Taylor deceleration in the disk, re-acceleration after the breakout from the disk surface, and momentum-conserved snowplow phase. Meanwhile, the radiation from the ejecta is so bright that its typical peak luminosity reaches a few times $10^{43}-10^{44}~\rm erg~s^{-1}$. Since most of the radiation energy has converted from the kinetic energy of merger ejecta, we call such an explosive phenomenon an interacting kilonova (IKN). It should be emphasized that IKNe are very promising, bright EM counterparts to NS-NS/BH-NS merger events in AGN disks. The bright peak luminosity and long rising time (i.e., ten to twenty days in UV bands, thirty to fifty days in optical bands, and one hundred days to hundreds of days in IR bands) allow most survey telescopes to have ample time to detect an IKN. However, the peak brightness, peak time, and evolution pattern of the light curve of an IKN are similar to a superluminous supernova in a galactic nucleus and a tidal disruption event making it difficult to distinguish between them. But it also suggests that IKNe might have been present in recorded AGN transients.
