X-ray Polarization Observations of BL Lacertae

Riccardo Middei, Ioannis Liodakis, Matteo Perri +143

Blazars are a class of jet-dominated active galactic nuclei with a typical double-humped spectral energy distribution. It is of common consensus the Synchrotron emission to be resp…

Multi-messenger characterization of Mrk 501 during historically low X-ray and -ray activity

MAGIC collaboration, H. Abe, S. Abe +322

We study the broadband emission of Mrk 501 using multi-wavelength observations from 2017 to 2020 performed with a multitude of instruments, involving, among others, MAGIC, Fermi-LA…

Polarized Blazar X-rays imply particle acceleration in shocks

Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher, Iván Agudo +125

Most of the light from blazars, active galactic nuclei with jets of magnetized plasma that point nearly along the line of sight, is produced by high-energy particles, up to $\sim 1…

Determination of the Physical Parameters of AGNs in Seyfert 1 Galaxies LEDA 3095839 and VII Zw 244 Based on Spectropolarimetric Observations

Elena Shablovinskaya, Mikhail Piotrovich, Eugene Malygin +2

Here we present the detailed investigation of AGNs in two Seyfert 1 galaxies, LEDA 3095839 and VII Zw 244. Both of them were observed within the photometric reverberation mapping p…

Rapid X-ray Variability in Mkn 421 during a Multiwavelength Campaign

Alex G. Markowitz, Krzysztof Nalewajko, Gopal Bhatta +47

The study of short-term variability properties in AGN jets has the potential to shed light on their particle acceleration and emission mechanisms. We report results from a four-day…

Determination of supermassive black hole spins in local active galactic nuclei

M. Yu. Piotrovich, S. D. Buliga, T. M. Natsvlishvili

We estimated the radiative efficiency and spin value for a number of local active galactic nuclei with z < 0.34 using 3 popular models connecting the radiative efficiency with such…
