Synthetic Neutrino Imaging of a Microquasar

Microquasars (MQ) comprise a binary stellar system where a main sequence star orbits a compact object, either a neutron star or a black hole. Microquasar binary stellar systems emit electromagnetic radiation and high-energy particles over a broad energy spectrum. However, they are so far away that it is hard to observe their details. A simulation offers the link between relatively scarce observational data and a rich theoretical background. In this work, high-energy particle emission from simulated twin microquasar jets is calculated in a unified manner. From the cascade of emission within an element of jet matter to the dynamic and radiative whole jet model, the series of physical processes involved are integrated together. Synthetic pictures and spectra are produced using a program suite built on model data, which are directly similar to possible observations by modern arrays. Depending on the requirements and available processing power, the model can incorporate progressively higher levels of realism to describe a wide range of system geometries. The modeling procedure is used on a typical microquasar, which is artificially observed using a variety of imaging geometries and at different angles. Furthermore, the resulting intensities are comparable to the sensitivity of existing detectors. The combined background emission from a potential distribution of microquasars is also modelled. The emission model, which in our case was NEMISS, should be altered in order to include the new emission physics. Synthetic imaging code RLOS2 is ready to use with any emission and absorption input, and only minor changes are required.
