Stochastic modeling of multiwavelength variability of the classical BL Lac object OJ 287 on timescales ranging from decades to hours
A. Goyal, L. Stawarz, S. Zola +109
We present the results of our power spectral density analysis for the BL Lac object OJ\,287, utilizing the {\it Fermi}-LAT survey at high-energy -rays, {\it Swift}-XRT in X-ray…
Fabrication of Ultra-High Q Silica Microdisk Using Chemo-Mechanical Polishing
S. Honari, S. Haque, Tao Lu
Here we demonstrate that adding a chemo-mechanical polishing (CMP) procedure to conventional photolithography, a silica microdisk with ultra-high quality factors () can be f…
Multi-band optical photometric variability of the blazar OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025
Alok C. Gupta, Karan Dogra, Mark Kidger +101
We present the most densely sampled multi-band optical photometric observations of the peculiar BL Lacertae object OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025 with a focus on its optical activity on…
Fractal dimensions of umbral and penumbral regions of sunspots
B. Rajkumar, S. Haque, W. Hrudey
The images of sunspots in sixteen active regions taken at the UCCI Observatory in Grand Cayman during June - November 2015, were used to determine their fractal dimensions using th…
High accuracy measurement of gravitational wave back-reaction in the OJ287 black hole binary
Mauri J. Valtonen, L. Dey, R. Hudec +16
Blazar OJ287 exhibits large thermal flares at least twice every 12 years. The times of these flares have been predicted successfully using the model of a quasi-Keplerian eccentric…
Variability and stability in blazar jets on time scales of years: Optical polarization monitoring of OJ287 in 2005-2009
C. Villforth, K. Nilsson, J. Heidt +45
(Abridged) OJ287 is a BL Lac object that has shown double-peaked bursts at regular intervals of ~12 yr during the last ~40 yr. We analyse optical photopolarimetric monitoring data…
