FRB 190520B Embedded in a Magnetar Wind Nebula and Supernova Remnant: A Luminous Persistent Radio Source, Decreasing Dispersion Measure, and Large Rotation Measure

description Recently, FRB 190520B, which has the largest extragalactic dispersion measure (DM), was discovered by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The DM excess over the intergalactic medium and Galactic contributions is estimated as ∼900 pc cm −3 , which is nearly ten times higher than that of other fast-radio-burst (FRB) host galaxies. The DM decreases with the rate ∼0.1 pc cm −3 per day. It is the second FRB associated with a compact persistent radio source (PRS). The rotation measure (RM) is found to be larger than 1.8 × 10 5 rad m −2 . In this Letter, we argue that FRB 190520B is powered by a young magentar formed by core collapse of massive stars, embedded in a composite of a magnetar wind nebula (MWN) and supernova remnant (SNR). The energy injection of the magnetar drives the MWN and SN ejecta to evolve together and the PRS is generated by the synchrotron radiation of the MWN. The magnetar has an interior magnetic field B int ∼ (2–4) × 10 16 G and an age t age ∼ 14–22 yr. The dense SN ejecta and the shocked shell contribute a large fraction of the observed DM and RM. Our model can naturally and simultaneously explain the luminous PRS, decreasing DM, and extreme RM of FRB 190520B.
