Multi-band Cross-correlated Radio Variability of the Blazar 3C 279

Krishna Mohana A, Alok C. Gupta, Alan P. Marscher +18

We present the results of our study of cross-correlations between long-term multi-band observations of the radio variability of the blazar 3C 279. More than a decade (2008-2022) of…

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…

The Repeating Flaring Activity of Blazar AO 0235+164

Juan Escudero Pedrosa, Iván Agudo, Andrea Tramacere +27

Context. Blazar AO 0235+164, located at redshift z = 0.94, has undergone several sharp multi-spectral-range flaring episodes during the last decades. In particular, the episodes pe…

Multi-year characterisation of the broad-band emission from the intermittent extreme BL Lac 1ES~2344+514

H. Abe, S. Abe, V. A. Acciari +232

The BL Lac 1ES 2344+514 is known for temporary extreme properties (e.g., a shift of the synchrotron SED peak energy above 1keV). While those extreme states were so fa…

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…
