Blazars at Very High Energies: Emission Modelling

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
Blazars are very broadband cosmic sources with spectra spanning over twenty orders of magnitude in frequency, down to the 100 MHz regime in the radio range, up to VHE at several tens of TeV.

The Nature of Micro-Variability in Blazars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
We present the results of a long-term study designed to investigate the nature of micro-variability in blazars carried out primarily at the Southeastern Association for Research in Astronomy (SARA) observatories.

Variability in blazars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics Supplement Series, 1998
The results of both BVRI CCD photometric monitoring and fast photometry for 8 blazars and variable quasars are presented. There is intraday variability for 6 blazars and very short timescales (minutes to two hours) variability for 5 objects. Implications for relativistic beaming are briefly discussed.

A Model of Polarisation Rotations in Blazars from Kink Instabilities in Relativistic Jets

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
This paper presents a simple model of polarisation rotation in optically thin relativistic jets of blazars. The model is based on the development of helical (kink) mode of current-driven instability.

The RoboPol Program: Optical Polarimetric Monitoring of Blazars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2019
After three years of polarimetric monitoring of blazars, the RoboPol project has uncovered several key characteristics of polarimetric rotations in the optical for these most variable sources.

Swift for blazars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Astrophysics, 2015
I will review recent advances in the field of blazars, highlighting the contribution of Swift. Together with other operating satellites (most notably Fermi, but also AGILE, WISE, Planck) and ground based facilities such as Cherenkov telescopes, Swift was (and is) crucial for improving our understanding of blazars.

Multi-messenger emission characteristics of blazars [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Multi-messenger observations and theories of astrophysical objects are rapidly becoming a critical research area in the astrophysics scientific community. In particular, point-like objects such as BL Lacertae (BL Lac) objects, flat-spectrum radio quasars

Classification of unassociated fermi-LAT sources [PDF]

open access: yesITM Web of Conferences, 2022
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space telescope has detected 5788 sources in the 4FGL catalogue. Among them, 271 have been associated to pulsars, 3436 to blazars, and 1782 remain unassociated sources.
