Combined synchrotron and nonlinear synchrotron-self-Compton cooling of relativistic electrons
The broadband SEDs of blazars exhibit two broad spectral components which in leptonic emission models are attributed to synchrotron radiation and SSC radiation of relativistic electrons. During high state phases the highfrequency SSC component often dominates over the low-frequency synchrotron component implying that the inverse Compton SSC losses of electrons are at least equal to or greater t...
متن کاملCompton scattering of self-absorbed synchrotron emission
Synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) scattering is an important emission mechanism in many astronomical sources, such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and active galactic nuclei. We give a complete presentation of the analytical approximations for the Compton scattering of synchrotron emission with both weak and strong synchrotron self-absorption. All possible orders of the characteristic synchrotron spect...
متن کاملSynchrotron and Synchrotron Self-compton Spectral Signatures and Blazar Emission Models
We find that energy losses due to synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission in blazar jets can produce distinctive signatures in the time-averaged synchrotron and SSC spectra of these objects. For a fairly broad range of particle injection distributions, SSC-loss dominated synchrotron emission exhibits a spectral dependence Fν ∼ ν−3/2. The presence or absence of this dependence in the optical and...
متن کاملKlein-Nishina Effects on Optically Thin Synchrotron and Synchrotron Self-Compton Spectrum
We present analytic approximations to the optically thin synchrotron and synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) spectra when Klein-Nishina (KN) effects are important and pair production and external radiation fields can be neglected. This theory is useful for analytical treatment of radiation from astrophysical sources, such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), active galactic nuclei and pulsar wind nebula, whe...
متن کاملGamma-ray burst prompt emission variability in synchrotron and synchrotron self-Compton light curves
Gamma-ray burst prompt emission is believed to originate from electrons accelerated in a highly relativistic outflow. Internal shocks, which are a result of collisions between shells ejected by the central engine, are the leading candidates for electron acceleration. While synchrotron radiation is generally invoked to interpret prompt gamma-ray emission within the internal shock model, the sync...
