Optical circular polarization of blazar S4 0954+65 during high linear polarized states
I. Liodakis, E. Shablovinskaya, D. Blinov +17
Optical circular polarization observations can directly test the particle composition in black holes jets. Here we report on the first observations of the BL Lac type object S4 095…
Quasi-simultaneous Optical Flux and Polarization Variability of the Binary Super Massive Black Hole Blazar OJ 287 from 2015 to 2023: Detection of an Anticorrelation in Flux and Polarization Variability
Alok C. Gupta, Pankaj Kushwaha, Mauri J. Valtonen +25
We study the optical flux and polarization variability of the binary black hole blazar OJ 287 using quasi-simultaneous observations from 2015 to 2023 carried out using telescopes i…
Observations of Low and Intermediate Spectral Peak Blazars with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Herman L. Marshall, Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher +145
We present X-ray polarimetry observations from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) of three low spectral peak and one intermediate spectral peak blazars, namely 3C 273, 3…
Extreme photometric and polarimetric variability of blazar S4 0954+65 at its maximum optical and -ray brightness levels
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. I. Carnerero +64
In 2022 the BL Lac object S4 0954+65 underwent a major variability phase, reaching its historical maximum brightness in the optical and -ray bands. We present optical photometri…
The optical behaviour of BL Lacertae at its maximum brightness levels: a blend of geometry and energetics
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, S. G. Jorstad +13
In 2021 BL Lacertae underwent an extraordinary activity phase, which was intensively followed by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) Collaboration. We present the WEBT optical…
