摘要
As a progenitor of NHE (Non High Energy) GRBs (Gamma Ray Bursts), we propose a (C+O) star and a neutron star (black hole) close binary system with separation similar to 0.2 R.. Since the (C+O) star is tidally locked, the collapsing core should have a spin angular momentum similar to 6 X 10(48) cgs, SO that a new-born pulsar should be a milli-second pulsar (MSP) (P similar to 1 ms). An alpha - Omega dynamo in the first 10 s after the bounce of the core will generate a super strong magnetic field (B similar to 10(16) G). The beam of energy from a super strongly magnetized milli-second pulsar (SSM-MSP) can punch a hole in the supernova ejecta. Then the beam of gamma rays flows out of the ejecta for similar to 10 s With a total energy up to similar to 2 x 10(51) erg. If we observe this beam from the lateral direction, the energy of gamma rays should be smaller than 500 keV due to the electron scattering and the total energy of gamma rays should be much smaller than similar to 2 x 10(51) erg, which are the very characteristics of NHE-GRBs. In the SSM-MSP model of NHE-GRB, GRB events should be associated with Type Ib/Ic supernova, like GRB980425/SN1998bw. If a SSM-MSP is produced in a fraction (similar to a few %) of Type Ib/Ic supernovae, the event rate as well as the isotropic and homogeneous distribution of NHE-GRBs can also be explained. According to this model a pulsar with a spin period P similar to 1.4 s(B/10(16))(t/4 month)(1/2) should exist in SN1998bw, so that the search for this pulsar in all the wave length is urgent. SSM-MSPs can accelerate protons up to similar to 3 x 10(22)(P/1 ms)(-2)(B/10(16) G) eV. If a few % (similar to 10(50) erg) of the beam energy of SSM-MSP in NHE-GRB event (> 5 x 10(51) erg) is in the form of high energy protons of energy similar to 10(20) eV, the flux of the observed UHECRs (Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays) can be explained. Then it should be possible to find a supernova remnant along the direction of each UHECR, As a natural implication of our model, it is suggested that a NHE-GRB is a part of the progenitor of a soft gamma ray repeater which also has a superstrong magnetic field (B similar to 10(15) G) and is in a supernova remnant.
