Roma-BZCAT: A multifrequency catalogue of Blazars
E. Massaro, P. Giommi, C. Leto +5
We present a new catalogue of blazars based on multi-frequency surveys and on an extensive review of the literature. Blazars are classified as BL Lacertae objects, as flat spectrum…
The Intra-Night Optical Variability of the bright BL Lac object S5 0716+714
F. Montagni, A. Maselli, E. Massaro +3
We address the topic of the Intra-Night Optical Variability of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714. To this purpose a long term observational campaign was performed, from 1996 to 2003, w…
The Long Term Optical Variability of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714: Evidence for a Precessing Jet
R. Nesci, E. Massaro, C. Rossi +3
We present the historic light curve of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714, spanning the time interval from 1953 to 2003, built using Asiago archive plates and our recent CCD observation…
Optical follow-up of BL Lac candidates in the 2BL sample
R. Nesci, S. Sclavi, E. Massaro
We investigate the nature of the BL Lac candidates in the northern part of the 2BL sample (\cite{Londish02}) searching for optical variability by means of band photometry wit…
Synchrotron and Inverse Compton Variability in the BL Lacertae object S5 0716+714
P. Giommi, E. Massaro, L. Chiappetti +14
We report intensity variations of different spectral components in the BL Lac object S5 0716+714 detected during coordinated BeppoSAX and optical observations in 1996 and 1998. The…
