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…
Polarization Studies in Different Blazar Types. Part I: Correlation between Optical Brightness and Polarization Degree
E. A. Shkodkina, S. S. Savchenko, D. A. Morozova +11
We present an analysis of the cross-correlation between optical brightness and polarization degree in different types of blazars. The aim is to identify objects with simultaneous a…
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…
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…
Investigating the multiwavelength behaviour of the flat spectrum radio quasar CTA 102 during 2013-2017
F. D'Ammando, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +94
We present a multiwavelength study of the flat-spectrum radio quasar CTA 102 during 2013-2017. We use radio-to-optical data obtained by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope, 15 GHz dat…
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…
The extreme HBL behaviour of Markarian 501 during 2012
M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +276
A multiwavelength campaign was organized to take place between March and July of 2012. Excellent temporal coverage was obtained with more than 25 instruments, including the MAGIC,…
Multi-wavelength characterization of the blazar S5~0716+714 during an unprecedented outburst phase
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +187
The BL Lac object S5~0716+714, a highly variable blazar, underwent an impressive outburst in January 2015 (Phase A), followed by minor activity in February (Phase B). The MAGIC obs…
The detection of the blazar S4 0954+65 at very-high-energy with the MAGIC telescopes during an exceptionally high optical state
MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +169
The very-high-energy (VHE, GeV) -ray MAGIC observations of the blazar S4 0954+65, were triggered by an exceptionally high flux state of emission in the optical. Th…
Exceptional outburst of the blazar CTA 102 in 2012: The GASP-WEBT campaign and its extension
V. M. Larionov, M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri +49
After several years of quiescence, the blazar CTA 102 underwent an exceptional outburst in 2012 September-October. The flare was tracked from gamma-ray to near-infrared frequencies…
