Assessing Millisecond Proto-magnetars as Grb Central Engines
Magnetars are a sizable subclass of the neutron star census. Their very high magnetic field strengths are thought to be a consequence of rapid (millisecond) rotation at birth in a successful core-collapse supernova. In their first tens of seconds of existence, magnetars transition from hot, extended “proto-”magnetars to the cooled and magnetically-dominated objects we identify ∼ 10 years later ...
متن کاملToward a New Model of the Central Engine of GRB∗
We present new developments of the simple model of the central engine of GRB, proposed recently. The model is based on minimal assumptions: some rotating compact relativistic object at the center and stable perturbations of its rotating gravitational field, described by Teukolsky Master Equation. We show that using nonstandard polynomial solutions to the angular Teukolsky equation we can descri...
متن کاملGRB 060206: hints of precession of the central engine?
Aims. The high-redshift (z = 4.048) gamma-ray burst GRB 060206 showed unusual behavior, with a significant rebrightening by a factor of ∼4 at about 3000 s after the burst. We argue that this rebrightening implies that the central engine became active again after the main burst produced by the first ejecta, then drove another more collimated jet-like ejecta with a larger viewing angle. The two e...
متن کاملGRB 990123 : Evidence that the Gamma Rays Come from a Central Engine
GRB990123 was a long complex gamma-ray burst with an optical transient that started early within the gamma-ray phase (Akerlof et al. 1999a, Akerlof et al. 1999b). The peak and power law decay of the early optical emission strongly indicates the presence of a decelerating relativistic shell during that phase. Prior to this burst, it was not known if the shell decelerated during the burst, so an ...
متن کاملthe role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
