Spectral Energy Distribution of Markarian 501: Quiescent State vs. Extreme Outburst

The VERITAS Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, T. Arlen +225

The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) blazar Markarian 501 has a well-studied history of extreme spectral variability and is an excellent laboratory for studying the physical pro…

Insights Into the High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission of Markarian 501 from Extensive Multifrequency Observations in the Fermi Era

LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the MAGIC collaboration +6

We report on the gamma-ray activity of the blazar Mrk 501 during the first 480 days of Fermi operation. We find that the average LAT gamma-ray spectrum of Mrk 501 can be well descr…

Multi-wavelength Observations of the Flaring Gamma-ray Blazar 3C 66A in 2008 October

LAT collaboration, A. A. Abdo et al., the VERITAS collaboration +4

The BL Lacertae object 3C 66A was detected in a flaring state by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and VERITAS in 2008 October. In addition to these gamma-ray observations, F-GA…

The Sudden Death of the Nearest Quasar

Kevin Schawinski, Daniel A. Evans, Shanil Virani +13

Galaxy formation is significantly modulated by energy output from supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies which grow in highly efficient luminous quasar phases. The tim…
