Tachyonic γ -ray wideband of an ultra-relativistic electron plasma: Spectral fitting with Fermi power-law densities
چکیده انگلیسی

Fermionic power-law distributions are derived by the second quantization of classical power-law ensembles, and applied to ultra-relativistic electron populations in the Galactic center. The γγ-ray flux from the direction of the compact central source Sagittarius A* is fitted with a superluminal cascade spectrum. In this way, estimates of the radiating electron plasma in the Galactic center region are obtained, such as the power-law index, temperature, particle number, and internal energy. The spectral averaging of the tachyonic radiation densities with Fermi power-laws is explained. Fugacity expansions of the thermodynamic variables (thermal equation of state, entropy, isochoric heat capacity, and isothermal compressibility) are obtained in the quasiclassical high-temperature/low-density regime, where the spectral fit is carried out. The leading quantum correction to these variables is calculated, and its dependence on the electronic power-law index and the thermal wavelength is discussed. Excess counts of cosmic rays from the Galactic center region are related to the plasma temperature inferred from the cascade fit.
