AI总结:

本文在广义相对论框架下,通过引入复折射率的 Drude 模型研究 Schwarzschild 时空中的吸收性介电介质光线追踪,推导出包含色散的复 Hamilton 量与动量损失约束方程,并生成了可观测的光变曲线。

摘要:

广义相对论描述了光线在大质量物体附近弯曲时空中传播的轨迹。除了引力透镜效应外,我们引入了由复折射率(即 Drude 模型)描述的吸收性介电介质。当考虑吸收效应时,程函变为复数,其虚部与发射点和观测点之间光线沿路径的吸收有关。我们扩展了文献中的结果,将折射率的色散纳入考量。复 Hamilton 量分为描述运动方程的实部和约束系统动量损失的约束方程。我们在完全实数的坐标系下工作,物理时空中具有实度规。我们假设 Drude 物质的尘埃和等离子体分布重合,且按幂律 $1/r^h$ 变化。我们发现透射要求 $h>1$,否则光线沿路径会发生指数吸收。我们通过对致密星表面附近的强吸收物质进行光线追踪,并在弱场极限下针对点透镜及弱吸收物质进行特化处理,为遥远的观测者生成可能可观测的光变曲线。在适当的极限下,我们的理论重现了文献中的结果。

英文摘要:

General Relativity describes the trajectories of light-rays through curved spacetime near a massive object. In addition to gravitational lensing, we include an absorbing dielectric medium given by a complex refractive index known as the Drude model. When absorption is included the eikonal becomes complex, with the imaginary part related to the absorption along a ray between emission and observation points. We extend results from the literature to include dispersion in the index of refraction. The complex Hamiltonian splits into a real part that describes the equations of motion and a constraint equation that governs the momentum loss in the system. We work in coordinates which are fully real, with a real metric in physical spacetime. We assume the dust and plasma distributions of the Drude matter to coincide and vary as a power-law $1/r^h$. We find that transmission requires $h>1$, otherwise exponential absorption occurs along ray paths. We use ray-tracing through strongly absorbing matter near the surface of the compact star, as well as specializing to a point-lens in the weak-field limit with weakly absorbing matter to generate potentially observable light curves for distant observers. In the appropriate limits, our theory reproduces results from the literature.
