Multi-band optical photometric variability of the blazar OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025
Alok C. Gupta, Karan Dogra, Mark Kidger +101
We present the most densely sampled multi-band optical photometric observations of the peculiar BL Lacertae object OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025 with a focus on its optical activity on…
Detection of optical quasi-periodic oscillation in the blazar 3C 454.3
Karan Dogra, Alok C. Gupta, C. M. Raiteri +83
We analyzed 19 years of -band data of the blazar 3C 454.3 from the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) archive, along with new data from its members and from public archives suc…
First detection of VHE gamma-ray signal from the FSRQ TON 0599
MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +245
TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, \,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently o…
Multiband optical variability on diverse timescales of the blazar Ton 599 from 2011 to 2023
O. Vince, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +72
(Shortened)Context: We analyze the optical variability of the FSRQ Ton 599 using BVRI photometry from the WEBT collaboration (2011-2023), complemented by photometric and spectrosco…
Multiband Optical Variability of the Blazar 3C 454.3 on Diverse Timescales
Karan Dogra, Alok C. Gupta, C. M. Raiteri +79
Due to its peculiar and highly variable nature, the blazar 3C 454.3 has been extensively monitored by the WEBT team. Here, we present for the first time these long-term optical flu…
A wiggling filamentary jet at the origin of the blazar multi-wavelength behaviour
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. I. Carnerero +96
Blazars are beamed active galactic nuclei known for their strong multi-wavelength variability on timescales from years down to minutes. We aim to investigate the suitability of the…
