The broad-band properties of the intermediate synchrotron peaked BL  Lac  S2  0109+22 from radio to VHE gamma-rays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescopes observed S2 0109+22 in 2015 July during its flaring activity in high-energy gamma-rays observed by Fermi-Large Area Telescope.

Superluminal sources. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1995
Predictions for the apparent velocity statistics under simple beaming models are presented and compared to the observations. The potential applications for tests of unification models and for cosmology (source counts, measurements of the Hubble constant ...

Short timescale photometric and polarimetric behavior of two BL Lacertae type objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context. Blazars are astrophysical sources whose emission is dominated by non-thermal processes, i.e. synchrotron and inverse Compton emission. Although the general picture is rather robust and consistent with observations, many aspects are still ...

Polarization microvariability of BL Lacertae objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We present the results of a systematic observational campaign designed to search for microvariability in the optical polarization of BL Lac objects. We observed a sample formed by 8 X-ray-selected and 10 radio-selected sources, looking for rapid changes ...

The Impact of Polarized Extragalactic Radio Sources on the Detection of CMB Anisotropies in Polarization

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Recent polarimetric surveys of extragalactic radio sources (ERS) at frequencies ν ≳ 1 GHz are reviewed. By exploiting all the most relevant data we study the frequency dependence of polarization properties of ERS between 1.4 and 86 GHz. For flat‐spectrum sources the median (mean) fractional polarization increases from 1.5% (2–2.5%) at 1.4 GHz to 2.5–3%

General Physical Properties of Fermi Blazars

open access: yes, 2023
We study the general physical properties of Fermi blazars using the Fermi fourth source catalog data (4FGL-DR2). The quasi-simultaneous multiwavelength data of Fermi blazars are fitted by using the one-zone leptonic model to obtain some physical ...

Optical polarization of high-energy BL Lacertae objects

open access: yes, 2016
Context. We investigate the optical polarization properties of high-energy BL Lac objects using data from the RoboPol blazar monitoring program and the Nordic Optical Telescope.Aims: We wish to understand if there are differences between the BL Lac ...

The Simultaneous Low State Spectral Energy Distribution of 1ES 2344+514 from Radio to Very High Energies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
[Abridged] Context. To construct and interpret the spectral energy distribution (SED) of BL Lacertae objects, simultaneous broad-band observations are mandatory. Aims.

Detection of the BL Lacertae Object H1426+428 at TeV Gamma‐Ray Energies

open access: yes, 2002
A very high energy gamma-ray signal has been detected at the 5.5sigma level from H1426+ 428, an X-ray-selected BL Lacertae object at a redshift of 0.129.

Can we observe neutrino flares in coincidence with explosive transients? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
International audienceThe new generation of powerful instruments is reaching sensitivities and temporal resolutions that will allow multi-messenger astronomy of explosive transient phenomena, with high-energy neutrinos as a central figure.
