Young Extragalactic Radio Sources
Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources and Compact Symmetric Objects (CSO) are selected in very different ways, but have a significant overlap in properties. Ever since their discovery it has been speculated that they are young objects, but only recently, strong evidence has been provided indicating that GPS sources and CSOs are indeed the young counterparts of large, extended sources. They ar...
متن کاملHyperflares of SGRs as an engine for millisecond extragalactic radio bursts
We propose that the strong millisecond extragalactic radio burst (mERB) discovered by Lorimer et al. (2007) may be related to a hyperflare from an extragalactic soft gamma-ray repeater. The expected rate of such hyperflares, ∼ 20 50 d Gpc, is in good correspondence with the value estimated by Lorimer et al. The possible mechanism of radio emission can be related to the tearing mode instability ...
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 کاملOn Testing the Equivalence Principle with Extragalactic Bursts
An interesting test of Einstein’s equivalence principle (EEP) relies on the observed lag in arrival times of photons emitted from extragalactic transient sources. Attributing the lag between photons of different energies to the gravitational potential of the Milky Way (MW), several authors derive new constraints on deviations from EEP. It is shown here that potential fluctuations from the large...
متن کاملSpectral characteristics of the release bursts in Korean alveolar stops
This study investigates spectral characteristics of the release bursts in Korean alveolar stops in terms of intensity, center of gravity, and skewness of the spectra of the release burst across phonation types and speakers. The results showed that there was no significant difference in intensity, center of gravity, or skewness across phonation types but a significant difference across speakers....
