The GeV break in spectra of the blazar 3C 454.3 is a special observation feature that has been discovered by the Fermi-LAT. The origin of the GeV break in the spectra is still under debate. In order to explore the possible source of GeV spectral break in 3C 454.3, a one-zone homogeneous leptonic jet model and the McFit technique are utilized for fitting the quasi-simultaneous multiwaveband spectral energy distribution (SED) of 3C 454.3. The outside border of the broad-line region (BLR) and inner dust torus are chosen to contribute radiation in the model as external, seed photons to the external-Compton process, considering the observed γ-ray radiation. The combination of two components, namely the Compton-scattered BLR and dust torus radiation, assuming a broken power-law distribution of emitted particles, provides a proper fitting to the multiwaveband SED of 3C 454.3 detected 2008 August 3–September 2 and explains the GeV spectral break. We propose that the spectral break of 3C 454.3 may originate from an inherent break in the energy distribution of the emitted particles and the Klein–Nishina effect. A comparison is performed between the energy density of the ‘external’ photon field for the whole BLR UBLR achieved via model fitting and that constrained from the BLR data. The distance from the position of the γ-ray radiation area of 3C 454.3 to the central black hole could be constrained at ∼0.78 pc (∼4.00RBLR, the size of the BLR).

关于费米耀变体 GeV 光谱断裂的起源:3C 454.3

耀变体 3C 454.3 光谱中的 GeV 断裂是 Fermi-LAT 发现的一个特殊观测特征。光谱中 GeV 断裂的起源仍在争论中。为了探索3C 454.3中GeV光谱断裂的可能来源,采用单区均质轻子喷射模型和McFit技术来拟合3C 454.3的准同时多波段光谱能量分布(SED)。考虑到观测到的 γ 射线辐射,选择宽线区域 (BLR) 和内部尘埃环面的外边界以将辐射作为外部种子光子贡献给外部康普顿过程。假设发射粒子的幂律分布被打破,康普顿散射 BLR 和尘埃环面辐射这两个分量的组合,为 2008 年 8 月 3 日至 9 月 2 日检测到的 3C 454.3 的多波段 SED 提供了适当的拟合,并解释了 GeV 光谱中断。我们提出 3C 454.3 的光谱中断可能源于发射粒子能量分布的固有中断和克莱因-仁科效应。在通过模型拟合实现的整个 BLR UBLR 的“外部”光子场的能量密度与受 BLR 数据约束的能量密度之间进行比较。从 3C 454.3 的 γ 射线辐射区域位置到中心黑洞的距离可以限制在 ∼0.78 pc (∼4.00RBLR,BLR 的大小)。3 可能源于发射粒子能量分布的固有中断和克莱因-仁科效应。在通过模型拟合实现的整个 BLR UBLR 的“外部”光子场的能量密度与受 BLR 数据约束的能量密度之间进行比较。从 3C 454.3 的 γ 射线辐射区域位置到中心黑洞的距离可以限制在 ∼0.78 pc (∼4.00RBLR,BLR 的大小)。3 可能源于发射粒子能量分布的固有中断和克莱因-仁科效应。在通过模型拟合实现的整个 BLR UBLR 的“外部”光子场的能量密度与受 BLR 数据约束的能量密度之间进行比较。从 3C 454.3 的 γ 射线辐射区域位置到中心黑洞的距离可以限制在 ∼0.78 pc (∼4.00RBLR,BLR 的大小)。
