The new surprising behaviour of the two "prototype" blazars PKS 2155-304 and 3C 279
L. Costamante, F. Aharonian, R. Buehler +3
Recent VHE observations have unveiled a surprising behaviour in two well-known blazars at opposite sides of the blazar sequence. PKS 2155-304 have shown for the first time in an HB…
Looking Into the Fireball: ROTSE-III and Swift Observations of Early GRB Afterglows
E. S. Rykoff, F. Aharonian, C. W. Akerlof +21
We report on a complete set of early optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) obtained with the ROTSE-III telescope network from March 2005 through June 2007. This set is comp…
On the plasma temperature in supernova remnants with cosmic-ray modified shocks
L. O'C. Drury, F. A. Aharonian, D. Malyshev +1
Context: Multiwavelength observations of supernova remnants can be explained within the framework of the diffusive shock acceleration theory, which allows effective conversion of t…
Variable VHE gamma-ray emission from non-blazar AGNs
F. M. Rieger, F. A. Aharonian
The observation of rapidly variable very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays from non-aligned active galactic nuclei (AGNs), as reported from M87, proves challenging for conventional theo…
Optical Lightcurve & Cooling Break of GRB 050502A
S. A. Yost, K. Alatalo, E. S. Rykoff +29
We present lightcurves of the afterglow of GRB050502A, including very early data at t-t_{GRB} < 60s. The lightcurve is composed of unfiltered ROTSE-IIIb optical observations from 4…
Broad-band electromagnetic radiation from microquasars interacting with ISM
V. Bosch-Ramon, F. A. Aharonian, J. M. Paredes
Microquasars (MQs) are galactic objects with relativistic jets that constitute a source population which can be responsible for production of a non-negligible fraction of the obser…
