On the need of an ultramassive black hole in OJ 287
Mauri J. Valtonen, Staszek Zola, Achamveedu Gopakumar +25
The highly variable blazar OJ~287 is commonly discussed as an example of a binary black hole system. The 130 year long optical light curve is well explained by a model where the ce…
Observational Implications of OJ 287's Predicted 2022 Disk Impact in the Black Hole Binary Model
Mauri J. Valtonen, Lankeswar Dey, Achamveedu Gopakumar +24
We present a summary of the results of the OJ 287 observational campaign, which was carried out during the 2021/2022 observational season. This season is special in the binary mode…
Mono and stereo performance of the two SST-1M telescope prototypes
J. Jurysek, T. Tavernier, V. Novotný +51
The Single-Mirror Small-Sized Telescope, or SST-1M, was originally developed as a prototype of a small-sized telescope for CTA, designed to form an array for observations of gamma-…
Refining the 2022 OJ 287 impact flare arrival epoch
Mauri J. Valtonen, Staszek Zola, Gopakumar +24
The bright blazar OJ~287 routinely parades high brightness bremsstrahlung flares, which are explained as being a result of a secondary supermassive black hole (SMBH) impacting the…
