Relativistic jets and non-thermal radiation from collapse of stars to black holes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2006
Abstract
The formation of the relativistic jets and a non-thermal emission from the collapsing magnetized stars with dipole magnetic fields and the heterogeneous particles distribution are investigated. These polar jets are formed when the stellar magnetosphere compress during collapse its magnetic field increases considerable. The electric field is produced in magnetosphere, which the charged particles will be accelerated. As follow from the calculation, the jets can be formed from collapsing stars already the explosion of supernova stars without shock waves. These jets will generate the non-thermal radiation. The radiation flux depends on the distance to the star, its magnetic field and the particle spectrum in the magnetosphere. This flux can be observed near Earth by means of modern telescopes in the form of the radiation pulse with duration equal to time collapse.
