2009.9.14-9.18 威尼斯shocking universe会议





会议网址: http://www.brera.inaf.it/sanservolo2009/index.html
他们说要提供ppt的, 不知道为什么也没上网.

以下是会议日程. 大致第一天Swift相关;第二天Fermi相关;第三天半天, 比较杂;第四天比较关注宇宙方面的如宿主星系, 高红移;第五天的也比较杂.

(时间表拷贝自网站上)

Sunday - September 13th
18:00 - 20:00Registration & Welcome Cocktail


Monday - September 14th
07:45 - 08:45Registration

ChairmanM. Feroci
08:45 - 09:00G. ChincariniWelcome
此人很像偷天陷阱里的男主角老头. 附剧照 http://posters.imdb.cn/jz/46852

09:00 - 09:35M. LyutikovGRB: observational progress and theoretical problems
主要内容大致有(这里以及以下都包含严重的偏见和记忆误差):
1. 一共有8个想080513这样的, 可能是短暴加一个tail;
2. 暴本身阶段的低频端的硬谱可能来自电子的分布;
3.说080916C的同步辐射模型是不行的

09:35 - 09:50I. SteeleOptical polarization measurements of GRB060418 and GRB090102
他们利物浦的望远镜加了偏振片, 这是两个观测. 其中060418的小于8%, 最令人惊讶的是090102的有10%, 而且致信度还很高!

09:50 - 10:05C. GuidorziThe controversial link between prompt optical and gammarays: temporal study of GRB 080319B
说这个暴的光变里有3.3s的周期现象.
下图是time lag

10:05 - 10:30Coffee Break
10:30 - 10:55S. BarthelmyGRB Prompt Emission and Swift-BAT
图左显示了三个仪器的分布和E_p的分布


1. 统计上, pulse的宽度 W~E_p^-0.4~z^0.4
2. 谱形上, cutoff power law的比Band的还多
3. 观测上, Swift的高红移的暴并没有更软 (这个可能说明E_p比较大, 即使红移比较高, 还是没看到peak的地方; 或者谱整个是一个比较好的幂律, 这样也不会看到变软; 或者, 当然最直接的解释应该是高红移的暴本身比较硬.)
4. 他们Swift在准备 sub-threshold, 就是不要那么强的伽玛光子信号就触发. 这样可以看到更多弱暴, 虽然会有很多误触发.
10:55 - 11:20S. KobayashiMagnetized Fireballs and Early Afterglows
11:20 - 11:45A. Pe'erObservations, theory and implications of thermal emission from gamma-ray bursts
他主要还是说他的Themal component
11:45 - 12:05L. AmatiSpectrum-energy correlation in GRB: status and perspectives
会议上有两个报告说Amati关系不对, 让他很郁闷. 在Tsvi的报告提问阶段都快结束后强烈要求发言, 终于给他机会, 说了很大一通. 最后说你们不能这样, 搞的让大家以为我这个关系真的就是错的样. Tsvi听了半天, 然后回了一句话, 闪人. 没听大明白, 大意是它是错的就是错的.

12:05 - 12:30J. RacusinJet Breaks and Energetics of Swift GRB X-ray Afterglows
12:30 - 12:45D. BurrowsChandra Searches for Jet Breaks

15:55 - 16:10R. KlebesadelThe Discovery of Cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts
此人算是伽玛暴的开山鼻祖, 1973?年发表了第一篇观测到伽玛暴的文章. 不知道会议组怎么这么有能耐, 居然能请到他来. 讲完后以及提问完后迎来了会上最长时间的掌声, 起码有一分钟. 具体内容不是很有意思, 提问还是蛮有意思的. Kouveliotou问他为什么那么晚才发文章, 他解释说忙, 还有因为计算机故障还是什么. 据说还有另外的版本, 说是因为军事机密问题, 不能发. (参见伽玛暴的发现的相关内容) 由于Vela是军事卫星, 主要目的是看前苏联有没有搞秘密核试验. 所以有人就问那你们到底看到了没有, 他坚决不泄密.
