Cygnus X-3 revealed as a Galactic ultraluminous X-ray source by IXPE
Alexandra Veledina, Fabio Muleri, Juri Poutanen +127
The accretion of matter by compact objects can be inhibited by radiation pressure if the luminosity exceeds the critical value, known as the Eddington limit. Discovery of ultralumi…
Towards coordinated site monitoring and common strategies for mitigation of Radio Frequency Interference at the Italian radio telescopes
Alessandra Zanichelli, Giampaolo Serra, Karl-Heinz Mack +22
We present a project to implement a national common strategy for the mitigation of the steadily deteriorating Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) situation at the Italian radio tele…
Solar observations with single-dish INAF radio telescopes: continuum imaging in the 18-26 GHz range
A. Pellizzoni, S. Righini, M. N. Iacolina +28
We present a new solar radio imaging system implemented through the upgrade of the large single-dish telescopes of the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), not origi…
Investigation of the correlation patterns and the Compton dominance variability of Mrk 421 in 2017
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +284
We present a detailed characterisation and theoretical interpretation of the broadband emission of the paradigmatic TeV blazar Mrk 421, with special focus on the multi-band flux co…
The complex variability of blazars: Time-scales and periodicity analysis in S4 0954+65
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, V. M. Larionov +3
Among active galactic nuclei, blazars show extreme variability properties. We here investigate the case of the BL Lac object S4 0954+65 with data acquired in 2019-2020 by the Trans…
Investigating the mini and giant radio flare episodes of Cygnus X-3
E. Egron, A. Pellizzoni, S. Righini +16
The microquasar Cygnus X-3 underwent a giant radio flare in April 2017, reaching a maximum flux of Jy at 8.5 GHz. We present results from a long monitoring campaign car…
Multiwavelength behaviour of the blazar 3C279: decade-long study from -ray to radio
V. M. Larionov, S. G. Jorstad, A. P. Marscher +84
We report the results of decade-long (2008-2018) -ray to 1 GHz radio monitoring of the blazar 3C 279, including GASP/WEBT, and data, as well as polarim…
The beamed jet and quasar core of the distant blazar 4C 71.07
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. I. Carnerero +5
The object 4C 71.07 is a high-redshift blazar whose spectral energy distribution shows a prominent big blue bump and a strong Compton dominance. We present the results of a two-yea…
AGILE, Fermi, Swift, and GASP-WEBT multi-wavelength observations of the high-redshift blazar 4C 71.07 in outburst
S. Vercellone, P. Romano, G. Piano +56
The flat-spectrum radio quasar 4C 71.07 is a high-redshift (), -loud blazar whose optical emission is dominated by the thermal radiation from accretion disc. 4C 7…
Investigating the high-frequency spectral features of SNRs Tycho, W44 and IC443 with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
S. Loru, A. Pellizzoni, E. Egron +20
The main characteristics in the radio continuum spectra of Supernova Remnants (SNRs) result from simple synchrotron emission. In addition, electron acceleration mechanisms can shap…
Observations of Supernova Remnants with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
E. Egron, A. Pellizzoni, S. Loru +11
In the frame of the Astronomical Validation activities for the 64m Sardinia Radio Telescope, we performed 5-22 GHz imaging observations of the complex-morphology supernova remnants…
Modelling high-resolution spatially-resolved Supernova Remnant spectra with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
Sara Loru, Alberto Pellizzoni, Elise Egron +12
Supernova Remnants (SNRs) exhibit spectra featured by synchrotron radio emission arising from the relativistic electrons, and high-energy emission from both leptonic (Bremsstrahlun…
The 999th Swift gamma-ray burst: Some like it thermal
F. Nappo, A. Pescalli, G. Oganesyan +23
We present a multiwavelength study of GRB 151027A. This is the 999th GRB detected by the Swift satellite and it has a densely sampled emission in the X-ray and optical band and has…
