Systematic Search for and Study of Short-timescale Flare Structures in BL Lac Object Gamma-Ray Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present here the first systematic search of short-timescale γ -ray flares from 29 high Galactic latitude BL Lac objects over 14 yr of Fermi Large Area Telescope data. Using a combined Bayesian Blocks and HOP algorithm, we identified seven high-quality

Rapid Optical Flares in the Blazar OJ 287 on Intraday Timescales with TESS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have analyzed the optical light curves of the blazar OJ 287 obtained with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite over about 80 days from 2021 October 13 to December 31, with an unprecedented sampling of 2 minutes.

Long-term Optical Spectroscopic Variability of BL Lacertae Object AO 0235+164

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The changing-look (CL) phenomenon in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) poses a significant challenge to the unified model. As a special subclass of AGN, blazars provide valuable insights.

Flux and Spectral Variability of High-Energy-Peaked BL Lacertae Objects in the 0.3–10 keV Band

open access: yesGalaxies
BL Lacertae objects (BL Lacs) are active galactic nuclei notable for beamed emission generated in the relativistic jets, forming a small angle with respect to our line-of-sight.

Radio Detection of 18 RASS BL Lac Objects [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2009
We present the radio detection of 18 BL Lac objects from oursurvey of over 575 deg$^2$ of sky. These 18 objects are located within$20arcsec$ of the X-ray position, of which 11 have a measuredred-shift.

Classification of Fermi BCUs Using Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has detected 6659 γ -ray sources in the incremental version (4FGL-DR3, for Data Release 3) of the fourth Fermi-LAT catalog of γ -ray sources and 3743 of them are blazars, including 1517 blazar candidates of uncertain ...

ROSAT Observations of BL Lacertae Objects

open access: yes, 1996
We present soft X-ray spectra of 74 BL Lacertae objects observed with the PSPC detector on board of the ROSAT satellite. The sample contains all BL Lac objects detected during the pointed observation phase as a target or serendipitously. We have investigated the soft X-ray and broad band spectral properties and discuss the consequences for the X-ray ...

Multi-Band Optical Variability of Blazar 1ES 2344+514 on Diverse Time-Scales

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research in Natural and Applied Sciences
This study presents the results of multi-band observations from 2022 to 2024 and Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations from 2018 to 2023, examining the flux variability of the blazar 1ES 2344+514 on diverse time-scales in the optical bands.
