从Fermi 3期源表(3FGL)中选择了一个含935个耀变体(blazar)的样本, 包括415个平谱射电源(Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar, FSRQ), 520个蝎虎天体(BL Lac object, BL Lac), 其中高同步峰BL Lac (HBL) 233个, 中同步峰BL Lac (IBL) 144个, 低同步峰BL Lac (LBL) 143个. 研究了总样本、FSRQ、BL Lac及其子类HBL、LBL的射电1.4GHz 与gamma射线在0.1、0.3、1、3、10GeV处辐射流量密度的关系. 结果显示: 所有样本的射电1.4GHz与5个波段gamma射线的辐射流量都有强相关, 相关系数在0.48--0.81之间, 机会概率均小于$10^{-4; 对于不同的样本相关系数随着gamma射线辐射频率的变化有不同的变化趋势, 所有样本在5个波段的相关系数平均值随gamma射线频率的增加而减小. 该结果暗示, 随着频率的升高, blazar的gamma射线辐射主导机制在发生变化, 在相同频率处, 不同类型天体的辐射主导机制存在差异; HBL的gamma射线辐射主要由同步自康普顿主导, 而LBL的其他成份比HBL的更复杂; FSRQ的gamma射线起源较BL Lac的复杂.

Fermi耀变体的能谱分布研究

从SSDC (Italian Space Agency Science Data Center)搜集了68个Fermi耀变体的射电至X射线波段的观测数据,用对数抛物线拟合计算了其同步辐射峰的参数.研究了有效谱指数、同步辐射峰值频率和曲率的关系并用有效谱指数估算同步峰频.主要结果有:(1)研究同步峰频和曲率的线性关系发现,对于全部的蝎虎天体(BL Lac),结果与能量依赖加速概率模型的预测一致.但是,如果仅仅考虑高峰频BL Lac,即同步峰频lg (ν_p/Hz)> 15.3的BL Lac,其结果却与分数变换加速增益模型的预测结果一致.(2)对于同步峰频相同的源,射电-光学的有效谱指数αro与曲率间有显著的负相关,而光学-X射线的有效谱指数α_ox与曲率无关.通过α_ro可以确定一个同步峰频与曲率的关系.     

Blazars的多波段辐射谱：聚束效应和内禀谱

考虑了观测到的Ｂｌａｚａｒｓ多波段辐射的两分量特征,提出该观测特征可由频率相并的取束效应和内禀谱一起来解释。多普勒因子与频率之间的关系由分析观测数据获得。假定内禀谱由非均匀喷流中同步－自康普顿机制产生,应用该模型解释了３Ｃ２７９的辐射。     

Blazar天体的红外偏振和变化研究

利用多波段同时性观测数据,研究了Blazar天体的近红外波段偏振与光学波段偏振的关系,发现两个波段的偏振度和偏振角之间都存在着很强的线性相关性．另外,两个波段的辐射流量也强烈相关．结果表明Blazr天体的近红外辐射主要来自于相对论电子的同步辐射,且与光学波段辐射来自于同一辐射区域．另外,利用2MASS数据还研究了近红外波段3个色指数J-H、H-K和J-K之间的相关性,发现J-H和H-K都与J-K强相关,但J-H与H-K之间没有相关性．最后研究了色指数-星等关系,表明在近红外波段Blazar天体变亮时谱形变平．     

Mark 421天体多波段辐射机制研究

基于对数抛物线型电子分布,用单区、均匀同步自康普顿(Synchrotron Self-Compton,SSC)辐射模型计算BL Lac天体S5 0716+714的多波段能谱,并与Paggi等人的结果进行了比较.模型的计算结果与Paggi等人直接用δ函数近似得到的结果不同,导致该差异的主要原因可能是由于单电子同步辐射的δ函数近似丢失了电子的部分能量而影响逆康普顿散射结果.把该模型分别应用于Mark 421天体的高、中、低3种不同状态下的多波段观测结果,理论计算结果能与不同状态下的观测结果符合得很好.分析认为,观测到的Mark 421天体的不同状态可能是由于喷流内电子分布变化引起的.     

活动星系核的多波段能谱及其发射机制：II.红外连续辐射能谱

本文讨论了１６个红外强ＰＧ类星体的红外辐射能谱。我们假设这些活动星系核的红外谱是由非热辐射机制和尘埃的热辐射共同产生的，通过对红外包的最佳拟合，我们发现大多数ＰＧ类星体的红外包位于７－２４μ的中远红外区，尘埃的热辐射机制能很好地产生观测到的红外包。通过模拟能定量地说明尘埃产生的热致辐射在这些天体的红外谱中的相对重要性，在模型与观测值之间的拟合中，我们得到了在这些天体中核加热的尘埃区的大小、尘埃的分     

喷流吸收对3C 279非热辐射谱的影响

考虑了喷流的吸收效应对类星体3C 279多波段能谱的影响.在不含时的同步自康普顿(SSC)模型的基础上,假定喷流中辐射的包受到在其前面的已冷却的包的遮挡,从而使得辐射区的发射可被吸收,这导致能谱的改变.计算表明喷流物质会对类星体辐射区发出的X射线波段的辐射有强烈的吸收,同时喷流物质会以发射线的形式在软X射线和紫外波段将吸收来的能量发射出去.利用这样的模型拟合了类星体3C 279观测到的多波段能谱,并对结果给出了简要的讨论.     

高红移耀变体4C 38.41光学多波段光变性质

4C 38.41是一颗红移为1.813、可分类为平谱射电类星体的耀变体,使用一台85 cm望远镜在2018年2月22日至26日期间对其进行了光学V和R波段测光观测,得到两个波段的准同时数据.基于这些数据分析了该源在不同光变时标下的光变特性.结果表明:这颗源在观测期间处于较弱的活动状态, V和R波段星等(V, R)总变化均约为0.20等.在天内时标下,其中3晚探测到了该源的天内光变,另有一晚可能存在天内光变.此外,通过色指数和时延分析发现4C 38.41在不同时标下都展现越亮越红行为,与大多数平谱射电类星体类似,但在最后一晚4C 38.41在颜色-星等图上呈现出v字形,即首先展现越亮越红行为,然后转变为越亮越蓝行为,这可能是由该源的辐射在吸积盘主导和喷流主导之间的转换造成的.此外在第2晚探测到了V、R波段之间的时延,这是首次在高红移耀变体中探测到不同光学波段光变之间的时延,可以用随机同步辐射小结构模型来解释.

Spectral Energy Distribution for Some Fermi Blazarstwo

The observational data from radio to X-ray wavebands were collected from the SSDC (Italian Space Agency Science Data Center) for 68 Fermi blazars, and their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) were calculated by means of the least square fitting with a log-parabolic function. Based on the SED fitting parameters, the correlations of the synchrotron peak frequency, curvature and effective spectral index were discussed, and an empirical formula was also proposed to estimate the synchrotron peak frequencies by using the effective spectral indexes. The main results are as follows: (1) From the linear correlation between the synchrotron peak frequency (lg ν_p) and the curvature (k), we find that the result supports the energy-dependent acceleration probability model for all BL Lac objects, while the result for the BL Lac objects of lg ν_p > 15.3 is consistent with the model of fluctuation of fractional acceleration gain. (2) For the sources of nearly same lg ν_p, a significant correlation between the effective spectral index α_ro of the radio-optical waveband and the curvature is detected, while the effective spectral index α_ox of the optical-x-ray waveband is not correlated with the curvature. According to the effective spectral index α_ro, a relation between the synchrotron peak frequency and the curvature can be defined.     

X-ray Emissions of Fermi Blazarstwo

The X-ray emissions of blazars are located at the end of synchrotron radiation and the beginning of inverse Compton radiation. Therefore, the origin of the X-ray emissions is rather complex. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of blazars from radio to X-ray bands can be fitted approximatively by a parabolic function. If we consider approximately the fitting curves as the physical spectra of blazars to analyze the X-ray emissions of Fermi blazars, the results show that: (1) The X-ray emissions of blazars contain two components, i.e. the synchrotron radiation and inverse Compton radiation, which can be simply separated by these fitting curves; (2) the higher the synchrotron peak frequency of the source, the greater the synchrotron radiation component, and the less the inverse Compton radiation component; (3) at 1 keV of the X-ray waveband, the synchrotron radiation component accounts for 17%, 27%, and 73% of the total X-ray emission, for FSRQs (Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars), LBLs (Low synchrotron peak frequency BL Lac objects), and HBLs (High synchrotron peak frequency BL Lac objects), respectively; (4) there is a strong positive correlation between the synchrotron peak frequency and the synchrotron radiation flux density at 1 keV, while no correlation exists between the synchrotron peak frequency and the inverse Compton radiation flux density; (5) the radiation mechanism of LBLs may be similar to that of FSRQs in the X-ray waveband.     

Study on the Properties of Blazar Jets

The multi-wavelength quasi-simultaneous data of 55 Fermi blazars are fitted by using the conical jet model, and the physical properties of blazar jets are also investigated. Through the X²-minimization fitting procedure, the best-fit parameters of the conical jet model are obtained. Combined with the other parameters we collected, a statistical analysis is performed. The results of statistical analysis are summarized as follows: (1) The jet power obtained by the spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting is larger than the jet power calculated by using the extended radio luminosity; (2) There is no correlation between the Doppler factor 5 and the magnetic field strength B; (3) There is a correlation between the jet power and the accretion disk luminosity, and the Blandford-Znajek (BZ) mechanism can well explain the energy source of BL Lac jets rather than Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs); (4) The jet power is significantly correlated with the black hole mass.     

The power of blazar jets

We estimate the power of relativistic, extragalactic jets by modelling the spectral energy distribution of a large number of blazars. We adopt a simple one-zone, homogeneous, leptonic synchrotron and inverse Compton model, taking into account seed photons originating both locally in the jet and externally. The blazars under study have an often dominant high-energy component which, if interpreted as due to inverse Compton radiation, limits the value of the magnetic field within the emission region. As a consequence, the corresponding Poynting flux cannot be energetically dominant. Also the bulk kinetic power in relativistic leptons is often smaller than the dissipated luminosity. This suggests that the typical jet should comprise an energetically dominant proton component. If there is one proton per relativistic electrons, jets radiate around 2–10 per cent of their power in high-power blazars and 3–30 per cent in less powerful BL Lacs.     

The Physics of Spectral Maxima in the Radiation from Non-Thermal Cosmic Radio Sources

Universal expressions are presented for spectral characteristics of non-thermal cosmic radio sources which show maxima of the spectral density of radiation at specific frequencies (negative slopes spectra). For a number of quasars, radio galaxies and their individual details the most probable physical processes in space leading to spectra of the kind are determined, and some parameters of the space medium, magnetic field and angular sizes of compact radio sources are estimated.     

Thermal material in relativistic jets

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.
