Eichler 2014 解决光球层热辐射的效率太低的问题

主要内容:
说如果在内部的热辐射往外走的时候,是基本不会被外层的shell挡住的,因为当光子追上外层的shell的时候,是在很远的地方,已经光学薄了。

Abstract

It is suggested that many $\gamma$-ray bursts (GRBs) are cloaked by an ultra-relativistic baryonic shell that has high optical depth when the photons are manufactured. Such a shell would not fully block photons reflected or emitted from its inner surface, because the radial velocity of the photons can be less than that of the shell. This avoids the standard problem associated with GRBs that the thermal component should be produced where the flow is still obscured by high optical depth. The radiation that escapes high optical depth obeys the Amati relation. Observational implications may include a) anomalously high ratios of afterglow to prompt emission, such as may have been the case in the recently discovered PTF 11agg, and b) ultrahigh-energy neutrino pulses that are non-coincident with detectable GRB. It is suggested that GRB 090510, a short, very hard GRB with very little afterglow, was an {\it exposed} GRB, in contrast to those cloaked by baryonic shells. \end{abstract}

Abstract

Hyper-accretion discs around black holes emit copious neutrinos and anti-neutrinos. A fraction of the emitted neutrinos convert to electron-positron plasma above the disc through the annihilation reaction $\nu\bar\nu\to e^+e^-$. This process may drive relativistic jets associated with GRB explosions. We calculate the efficiency of energy deposition by neutrinos. Our calculation is fully relativistic and based on a geodesic-tracing method. We find that the efficiency of neutrino heating is a well-defined function of (i) accretion rate and (ii) spin of the black hole. It is practically independent of the details of neutrino transport in the opaque zone of the disc. The results help identify accretion discs whose neutrino emission can power GRBs.

Abstract

We study the dynamic efficiency of conversion of kinetic-to-thermal/magnetic energy of internal shocks in relativistic magnetized outflows. We model internal shocks as being caused by collisions of shells of plasma with the same energy flux and a non-zero relative velocity. The contact surface, where the interaction between the shells takes place, can break up either into two oppositely moving shocks (in the frame where the contact surface is at rest), or into a reverse shock and a forward rarefaction. We find that for moderately magnetized shocks (magnetization $\sigma\simeq 0.1$), the dynamic efficiency in a single two-shell interaction can be as large as 40%. Thus, the dynamic efficiency of moderately magnetized shocks is larger than in the corresponding unmagnetized two-shell interaction. If the slower shell propagates with a sufficiently large velocity, the efficiency is only weakly dependent on its Lorentz factor. Consequently, the dynamic efficiency of shell interactions in the magnetized flow of blazars and gamma-ray bursts is effectively the same. These results are quantitatively rather independent on the equation of state of the plasma. The radiative efficiency of the process is expected to be a fraction $f_r<1$>

Abstract

We numerically analyze the evolution of a long-duration gamma-ray burst jet as it leaves the progenitor star and propagates to the photospheric radius, where radiation can be released. We find that the interaction of the relativistic material with the progenitor star has influences well beyond the stellar surface. Tangential collimation shocks are observed throughout the jet evolution, out to about 100 stellar radii, which is the whole range of our simulation. We find that the jet is internally hot at the photospheric radius and we compute the photospheric emission. The photosphere is a very efficient radiator, capable of converting more than half of the total energy of the jet into radiation. We show that bright photospheres are a common feature of jets born inside massive progenitor stars and that this effect can explain the high radiative efficiency observed in long-duration bursts.

Title: Re-born fireballs in Gamma-Ray Bursts

We consider the interaction between a relativistic fireball and material assumed to be still located just outside the progenitor star. Only a small fraction of the expected mass is sufficient to efficiently decelerate the fireball, leading to dissipation of most of its kinetic energy. Since the scattering optical depths are still large at distances comparable to the progenitor radius, the dissipated energy is trapped in the system, accelerating it to relativistic velocities. The process resembles the birth of another fireball at radii R~1e11 cm, not far from the transparency radius, and with a starting bulk Lorentz factors Gamma_c~10. As seen in the observer frame, this "re--generated" fireball appears collimated within an angle theta_j=1/Gamma_c. If the central engine works intermittently, the funnel can, at least partially, refill and the process can repeat itself. We discuss how this idea can help solving some open issues of the more conventional internal shock scenario for interpreting the Gamma-Ray Burst properties.

High Efficiency of Gamma-Ray Bursts Revisited

Abstract: Using the conservation of energy and momentum during collisions of any two shells, we consider the efficiency of gamma-ray bursts by assuming that the ejecta from the central engine are equally massive and have the same Lorentz factors. We calculate the efficiency and the final Lorentz factor of the merged whole shell for different initial diversities of Lorentz factors and for different microscopic radiative efficiency. As a result, a common high efficiency in the range of 0.1 to 0.9 is considerable, and a very high value near 100% is also reachable if the diversity of the Lorentz factors is large enough.

Title: Internal shocks in relativistic outflows: collisions of magnetized shells
Authors: Petar Mimica (1), Miguel-Angel Aloy (1, 2), Ewald Mueller (2) ((1) Departamento de Astronomia y Astrofisica, Universidad de Valencia, (2) MPA Garching)

(Abridged): We study the collision of magnetized irregularities (shells) in relativistic outflows in order to explain the origin of the generic phenomenology observed in the non-thermal emission of both blazars and gamma-ray bursts. We focus on the influence of the magnetic field on the collision dynamics, and we further investigate how the properties of the observed radiation depend on the strength of the initial magnetic field and on the initial internal energy density of the flow. The collisions of magnetized shells and the radiation resulting from these collisions are calculated using the 1D relativistic magnetohydrodynamics code MRGENESIS. The interaction of the shells with the external medium prior to their collision is also determined using an exact solver for the corresponding 1D relativistic magnetohydrodynamic Riemann problem. Our simulations show that two magnetization parameters - the ratio of magnetic energy density and thermal energy density, \alpha_B, and the ratio of magnetic energy density and mass-energy density, \sigma - play an important role in the pre-collision phase, while the dynamics of the collision and the properties of the light curves depend mostly on the magnetization parameter \sigma. The interaction of the shells with the external medium changes the flow properties at their edges prior to the collision. For sufficiently dense shells moving at large Lorentz factors (\simgt 25) these properties depend only on the magnetization parameter \sigma. Internal shocks in GRBs may reach maximum efficiencies of conversion of kinetic into thermal energy between 6% and 10%, while in case of blazars, the maximum efficiencies are \sim 2%.
