Impact of parameters in the toroidal blazar jet magnetic field model on axion-like particle constraints
The interaction between axion-like particles (ALPs) and photons induces ALP-photon oscillations in astrophysical magnetic fields, leading to spectral distortions in the γ-ray spectrum of blazars. The primary uncertainty of this phenomenon may originate from the magnetic field within the jet of the blazar. Many studies focus on a simple jet magnetic field model with a toroidal component exerting a predominant influence on regions far from the central region. While many investigations have explored the effects of ALP-photon oscillations using typical parameter values in this model, it is important to recognize that these parameters can be constrained by multi-wavelength observations. In this study, we utilize the high energy γ-ray spectrum of Mrk 421 obtained from MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations. By employing multi-wavelength fitting with a one-zone synchrotron self-Compton model, we derive the parameters characterizing the simple toroidal balazar jet magnetic field model, and investigate their impacts on the ALP constraints.
