Similar Scale-invariant Behaviors between Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters and an Extreme Epoch from FRB 121102

چکیده

The recent discovery of a Galactic fast radio burst (FRB) associated with hard X-ray from the soft gamma-ray repeater (SGR) J1935+2154 has established magnetar origin at least some FRBs. In this work, we study statistical properties gamma-ray/hard bursts SGRs 1806–20 and repeating FRB 121102. For SGRs, show that probability density functions for differences fluences, fluxes, durations different times have fat tails q-Gaussian form. q values in distributions are approximately steady independent temporal interval scale adopted, implying scale-invariant structure SGRs. These features indicate SGR may be governed by self-organizing criticality (SOC) process, confirming previous findings. Very recently, 1652 121102 been detected Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST). Here also investigate based on latest observations FAST, share similar properties. Given bimodal energy distribution bursts, separately explore behaviors low- high-energy We find different, which further strengthens evidence bimodality distribution. Scale invariance both component can well explained within same physical framework fractal-diffusive SOC systems.

Energy Sources of Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters

Quiescence and burst emission and relativistic particle winds of soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) have been widely interpreted to result from ultrastrongly magnetized neutron stars. In this magnetar model, the magnetic energy and gravitational energy of the neutron stars are suggested as the energy sources of all the emission and winds. However, Harding, Contopoulos & Kazanas (1999) have shown t...

JCMT observations of Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters

The spectra of the quiescent counterparts to the Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters SGR 1900+14 and SGR 1806–20 peak in the infrared. Their infrared spectra appear to contain several components: the photospheric emission from star(s) dominates at shorter wavelengths, a bright point source dominates at 25 μm, while an extended source dominates at 60 μm. However, we show here that these counterparts were n...

Unveiling Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters with INTEGRAL

Thanks to INTEGRAL’s long exposures of the Galactic Plane, the two brightest Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters, SGR 1806-20 and SGR 1900+14, have been monitored and studied in detail for the first time at hardX/soft gamma rays. This has produced a wealth of new scientific results, which we will review here. Since SGR 1806-20 was particularly active during the last two years, more than 300 short bursts h...

Soft Gamma Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars: Magnetar Candidates

Baade & Zwicky (1934) were the first to envision the formation of neutron stars as the end product of a supernova explosion. Their forward thinking was not vindicated for another three decades, with the discovery of the first radio pulsars by Bell and Hewish (Hewish et al. 1968). What Baade and Zwicky could not have anticipated, however, was the menagerie of astrophysical objects that are now a...

Soft Gamma Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars: Together Forever

I review of the observational properties of Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs) and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs), two unusual manifestations of neutron stars. I summarize the reasoning for SGRs being “magnetars,” neutron stars powered by the decay of a very large magnetic field, and the now compelling evidence that SGRs and AXPs are in fact members of the same source class, as predicted uniquely by t...
