Time-Dependent Injection as a Model for Rapid Blazar Flares
Time-dependent injection can cause non-linear cooling effects, which lead to a faster energy loss of the electrons in jets. The most obvious result is the appearance of unique breaks in the SED, which would normally be attributed to a complicated electron distribution. Knowledge of the observation time and duration is important for the interpretation of the observed spectra, because of the non-...
متن کاملFlares in Gamma Ray Bursts
The flare activity that is observed in GRBs soon after the prompt emission with the XRT (0.3-10 KeV) instrument on board of the Swift satellite is leading to important clues in relation to the physical characteristics of the mechanism generating the emission of energy in Gamma Ray Bursts. We will briefly refer to the results obtained with the recent analysis [1] and [2] and discuss the prelimin...
متن کامل“orphan” Γ-ray Flares and Stationary Sheaths of Blazar Jets
Blazars exhibit flares across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Many γ-ray flares are highly correlated with flares detected at longer wavelengths; however, a small subset appears to occur in isolation, with little or no correlated variability at longer wavelengths. These “orphan” γ-ray flares challenge current models of blazar variability, most of which are unable to reproduce this type of ...
متن کاملGamma-Ray Bursts from Extragalactic Magnetar Flares
The prototype for events that we call MFs—“March Fifth” events or “Magnetar Flares”—was observed on March 5, 1979. There is evidence that MFs are powered by catastrophic magnetic instabilities in ultra-magnetized neutron stars. These events begin with brief (∆t ∼ 0.1–1 s), intense, hard spikes of gamma rays, probably emitted in concurrence with relativistic outflows; followed by long (t ∼ 100 s...
متن کاملGiant Flares as Mini Gamma Ray Bursts
On December 27, 2004, practically all gamma-ray satellites were saturated by a giant flare from SGR1806−20 (Borkowski et al. 2004; Hurley et al. 2004; Mazets et al. 2004). This giant flare was strong enough to affect our ionosphere (Campbell et al. 2005) and for its reflection from the moon to be detected (Golenetskii et al. 2004). It was followed by an extremely bright radio afterglow, with an...
