How much can 56Ni be synthesized by the magnetar model for long gamma-ray bursts and hypernovae?

SUWA Y. and TOMINAGA N.

Abstract (from CDS):

A rapidly rotating neutron star with strong magnetic fields, called a magnetar, is a possible candidate for the central engine of long gamma-ray bursts and hypernovae (HNe). We solve the evolution of a shock wave driven by the wind from a magnetar and we evaluate the temperature evolution, by which we estimate the amount of 56Ni that produces the bright emission of HNe. We obtain a constraint on the magnetar parameters (i.e. the poloidal magnetic field strength Bp and initial angular velocity Ωi) for synthesizing enough 56Ni mass to explain HNe (M_^56Ni\gtrsim 0.2 M_☉), that is, (Bp/1016G)1/2(Ωi/104rad/s) ≳ 0.7.
