Promise of persistent multi-messenger astronomy with the blazar OJ 287

Mauri J. Valtonen, Lankeswar Dey, A. Gopakumar +7

Successful observations of the seven predicted bremsstrahlung flares from the unique bright blazar OJ 287 firmly point to the presence of a nanohertz gravitational wave (GW) emitti…

Low-frequency wideband timing of InPTA pulsars observed with the uGMRT

K Nobleson, Nikita Agarwal, Raghav Girgaonkar +29

High-precision measurements of the pulsar dispersion measure (DM) are possible using telescopes with low-frequency wideband receivers. We present an initial study of the applicatio…

Probing the innermost regions of AGN jets and their magnetic fields with RadioAstron. V. Space and ground millimeter-VLBI imaging of OJ 287

Jose L. Gómez, Efthalia Traianou, Thomas P. Krichbaum +27

We present the first polarimetric space VLBI observations of OJ 287, observed with RadioAstron at 22 GHz during a perigee session on 2014 April 4 and five near-in-time snapshots, t…

Evidence for profile changes in PSR J1713+0747 using the uGMRT

Jaikhomba Singha, Mayuresh P Surnis, Bhal Chandra Joshi +29

PSR J1713+0747 is one of the most precisely timed pulsars in the international pulsar timing array experiment. This pulsar showed an abrupt profile shape change between April 16, 2…

X-ray spectral components of the blazar and binary black hole candidate OJ 287 (2005-2020)

S. Komossa, D. Grupe, M. L. Parker +12

We present a comprehensive analysis of all XMM-Newton spectra of OJ 287 spanning 15 years of X-ray spectroscopy of this bright blazar. We also report the latest results from our de…

Supermassive binary black holes and the case of OJ 287

S. Komossa, S. Ciprini, L. Dey +12

Supermassive binary black holes (SMBBHs) are laboratories par excellence for relativistic effects, including precession effects in the Kerr metric and the emission of gravitational…
