Time-dependent modelling of short-term variability in the TeV-blazar VER J0521+211 during the major flare in 2020
MAGIC Collaboration, S. Abe, J. Abhir +228
The BL Lacertae object VER J0521+211 underwent a notable flaring episode in February 2020. A short-term monitoring campaign, led by the MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Chere…
IXPE Observation of the Low-Synchrotron Peaked Blazar S4 0954+65 During An Optical-X-ray Flare
Pouya M. Kouch, Ioannis Liodakis, Francesco Fenu +134
The X-ray polarization observations made possible with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) offer new ways of probing high-energy emission processes in astrophysical jets…
A Two-Week Monitoring Campaign on Mrk 421
W. Peter Maksym, Ioannis Liodakis, M. Lynne Saade +153
X-ray polarization is a unique new probe of the particle acceleration in astrophysical jets made possible through the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. Here we report on the firs…
An Intermediate Mass Black Hole Hidden Behind Thick Obscuration
Peter G. Boorman, Daniel Stern, Roberto J. Assef +12
Recent models suggest approximately half of all accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs; 10 M) are expected to undergo intense growth phase…
The NuSTAR Local AGN Distribution Survey (NuLANDS) I: Towards a Truly Representative Column Density Distribution in the Local Universe
Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Johannes Buchner +33
Hard X-ray-selected samples of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) provide one of the cleanest views of supermassive black hole accretion, but are biased against objects obscured by Compt…
Insights from the first flaring activity of a high-synchrotron-peaked blazar with X-ray polarization and VHE gamma rays
MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +250
We study a flaring activity of the HSP Mrk421 that was characterized from radio to very-high-energy (VHE; E TeV) gamma rays with MAGIC, Fermi-LAT, Swift, XMM-Newton and sever…
