活动星系核的喷流   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
本文首先对由活动星系核中发出的喷流的研究历史和观测特征作了概括介绍。然后着重评述关于喷流的产生(即最初的加速和准直机制)的两类基本模型。辐射压支持的流体厚吸积盘模型已经得到比较多的研究,看来存在一些难以解决的问题。电磁流体吸积盘模型似乎更有吸引力,但还需要大量的工作进一步详细探讨。  相似文献

利用Blandford-Znajek过程,得出了黑洞自转与活动星系核射电噪度的关系.在假设AGN喷流的射电功率主要来自于所提取的黑洞旋转能量后,根据Falcke和Bier-mann提出的喷流-吸积盘耦合机制,估算了AGN喷流的最大射电辐射功率.通过与PG类星体样本中强射电源观测结果的比较,进一步证实强射电类星体除了其喷流方向与视向的夹角很小外,其中心的超大质量黑洞很可能是自转很快的旋转黑洞.  相似文献

对microquaLsar(微类星体)最新的一些研究结果作了比较全面的评述。具有相对论性喷流的microquaLsar在很多现象上类似于极小尺度上的类星体。对X波段的观测可以探测到吸积盘内区甚至接近黑洞的区域。结合低波段上的观测和研究,人们在吸积盘的动力学模型、物质吸积与喷流形成之间的关系以及喷流的超光速运动等方面的认识都有了长足的进步,并且发现了黑洞存在的新证据。对它们的研究为更好地理解河外天体的相对论性喷流和黑洞吸积方面的问题开辟了一条新的途径。  相似文献

黑洞旋转能量的电磁提取及其在天体物理中的应用   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

该文着重介绍了两种大尺度磁场提取黑洞旋转能量的机制,即BZ机制和MC机制,以及BZMC共存模型在天体物理中的应用。BZ机制对应于连接黑洞与遥远天体物理负载的"开放"磁力线,而MC机制对应于连接黑洞与吸积盘的"闭合"磁力线。在BZ过程中大尺度磁场把黑洞的旋转能量以Poynting能流的形式输送到天体物理负载,成为驱动黑洞系统的喷流和伽马射线暴的中心发动机。在MC过程中能量和角动量通过大尺度磁场在黑洞与吸积盘之间转移。BZMC共存模型在高能天体物理中的应用包括以下几个方面:1)对活动星系核与黑洞双星的陡发射指数的拟合;2)对黑洞X射线双星的高频QPO与喷流的相关性的解释;3)对伽马射线暴的能量、时标的拟合以及对伽马射线暴与超新星成协的解释。最后对另外两种大尺度磁场提能机制,即BP机制和PC机制也作了简略介绍。  相似文献

黑洞吸积被认为是活动星系核的能量来源,而研究黑洞吸积最主要的难题是要解释吸积气体的角动量是如何转移出去的.黑洞吸积盘理论提出通过粘滞力矩转移角动量.径移主导吸积盘模型(advection-dominated accretion flow,简称ADAF)是几何厚、光学薄的低吸积率吸积盘模型,它在解释低光度活动星系核的一些观测现象时获得了很大的成功.近年来,随着计算机技术的迅猛发展,数值模拟在天体物理研究中获得了广泛的应用,也取得了突破性的进展.主要工作是用数值模拟方法研究ADAF整体解作为初始条件模拟黑洞的吸积过程.  相似文献

在早期的文章中,基于耀变体(Blazar)的知识,我们预言了在射电噪活动星系核(AGN)中心10kpc范围内X射线喷流的存在。钱得拉(Chandra)卫星最近对低功率射电星系的X射线观测与我们的预言相一致。在本文中我们研究了kpc尺度喷流中的电子加速,并建议通过对强的FRⅡ射电星系中所预言的X射线喷流的钱得拉卫星的X射线的观测,来研究红的耀变体中的康普顿冷却以及在内部致密喷流和大尺度延伸喷流间环境的不同。以上的研究可以进一步检验我们的关于射电噪活动星系核中kpc尺度X射线喷流的模型。  相似文献

The properties of thermal material co-existing with non-thermal emitting plasma and strong magnetic fields in the powerful jets of active galactic nuclei (AGN) are examined. Theoretical and observational constraints on the physical properties of this 'cold' component are determined. While the presence of a thermal component occupying a fraction ∼ 10−8 of the jet volume is possible, it seems unlikely that such a component is capable of contributing significantly to the total jet energy budget, since the thermal reprocessing signatures that should appear in the spectra have not, as yet, been detected.  相似文献

The interaction of fragmented plasma of active galactic nuclei jets with galactic haloes via gravitational scattering and lensing by dark matter subhaloes is studied using analytical calculations and numerical Monte-Carlo method. The lensing of jet radiation by halo masses is found to be negligible and unobservable. Moving through a galactic halo jet plasma fragments are sequentially deflected on hyperbolic orbits by gravitational field of subhaloes and deviates at some angles when leaving halo, causing widening of the jet. Based on this model jet opening angles are calculated numerically for various values of jet and halo characteristics. Though these angles are very small, gravitational scattering by halo masses results in specific radial profile of jet radiation intensity, that does not depend on halo mass distribution and jet properties. The intensity of jet radiation, obeying the derived profile, decreases by reasonable observable factors giving possibility to probe the presence of dark matter subhaloes.  相似文献

Some recent developments in the study of relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei and microquasars are reviewed. While it has been well established for some time that extragalactic jets found in radio galaxies, quasars, and BL Lac objects are the site of ultrarelativistic particle acceleration, the recent identification of the Galactic jet source and microquasar LS~5039 as a source of very-high-energy gamma-ray emission has underlined the striking similarity between the two types of astrophysical jet sources. In this paper, I will present an overview of the dominant radiation and particle acceleration processes and observational tests to distinguish between such processes. The wide-ranging analogies between Galactic and extragalactic jets, but also their distinct differences, in particular those caused by the presence of the companion star in Galactic microquasar systems, will be exposed.  相似文献

Active galactic nuclei(AGNs)have two major classes,namely radio loud AGNs and radio quiet AGNs.A small subset of the radio-loud AGNs is called blazars,which display extreme observational properties,such as rapid variability,high luminosity,high and variable polarization,and superluminal motion.All of those observational properties are probably due to a relativistic beaming effect with the jet pointing close to the line of sight.Observations suggest that the orientation can be expressed by a core-dominance p...  相似文献

It is proposed to carry out an observational test of the hypothesis that active galactic nuclei contain a massive black hole, surrounded by an accretion disk as an energy source. The observational program included 64 objects, selected according the Aldrovandi's model.  相似文献

We describe the dynamical evolution of hotspots velocity, pressure and mass density in radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs), taking proper account of (1) the conservations of the mass, momentum and kinetic energy flux of the unshocked jet, (2) the deceleration process of the jet by shocks and (3) the cocoon expansion without assuming the constant aspect ratio of the cocoon. By the detailed comparison with two-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamic simulations, we show that our model well reproduces the whole evolution of relativistic jets. Our model can explain also the observational trends of the velocity, the pressure, the size and mass density of hotspots in compact symmetric objects (CSOs) and Fanaroff–Riley type II (FR II) radio galaxies.  相似文献

Flat radio spectra with large brightness temperatures at the core of active galactic nuclei and X-ray binaries are usually interpreted as the partially self-absorbed bases of jet flows emitting synchrotron radiation. Here we extend previous models of jets propagating at large angles to our line of sight to self-consistently include the effects of energy losses of the relativistic electrons due to the synchrotron process itself and the adiabatic expansion of the jet flow. We also take into account energy gains through self-absorption. Two model classes are presented. The ballistic jet flows, with the jet material travelling along straight trajectories, and adiabatic jets. Despite the energy losses, both scenarios can result in flat emission spectra; however, the adiabatic jets require a specific geometry. No re-acceleration process along the jet is needed for the electrons. We apply the models to observational data of the X-ray binary Cygnus X-1. Both models can be made consistent with the observations. The resulting ballistic jet is extremely narrow with a jet opening angle of only 5 arcsec. Its energy transport rate is small compared to the time-averaged jet power and therefore suggests the presence of non-radiating protons in the jet flow. The adiabatic jets require a strong departure from energy equipartition between the magnetic field and the relativistic electrons. These models also imply a jet power of two orders of magnitude higher than the Eddington limiting luminosity of a  10-M  black hole. The models put strong constraints on the physical conditions in the jet flows on scales well below achievable resolution limits.  相似文献

A magnetically structured accretion disc corona, generated by buoyancy instability in the disc, can account for observations of flare-like events in active galactic nuclei. We examine how Petschek magnetic reconnection, associated with MHD turbulence, can result in a violent release of energy and heat the magnetically closed regions of the corona up to canonical X-ray emitting temperatures. X-ray magnetic flares, the after effect of the energy released in slow shocks, can account for the bulk of the X-ray luminosity from Seyfert galaxies and consistently explain the observed short-time-scale variability.  相似文献

We consider the acceleration of charged particles by the Fermi mechanism on magnetic field irregularities in active galactic regions. The relativistic particles are shown to be accelerated most efficiently, while the acceleration of nonrelativistic particles by this mechanism is possible only in highly nonuniform galactic nuclei, that is, in nuclei with strong turbulization. The conditions for the acceleration of charged particles in active galactic nuclei at various stages of their evolution are investigated.  相似文献
