SKA-VLBI Probes of High-energy Emission Processes in Relativistic Jets
M. Kadler, E. K. Bempong-Manful, P. G. Edwards +10
Relativistic jets in the nuclei of active galaxies are ubiquitous sources of high-energy emission. In particular, blazars represent the most luminous persistent X-ray and gamma-ray…
Parsec-scale polarimetry and kinematics of a spine-sheath jet in the neutrino-blazar TXS 0506+056
F. Eppel, P. Benke, C. Degli Agosti +10
In 2017, the blazar TXS 0506+056 showed a remarkable gamma-ray outburst simultaneously with a high-energy neutrino detection by IceCube from the same sky region. The significance o…
A hidden ultra-relativistic spine in the jet of a neutrino-associated blazar
Y. Y. Kovalev, F. Eppel, D. C. Homan +16
Supermassive black holes launch powerful jets of plasma that can accelerate particles to extreme energies, but the physical conditions required to produce high-energy neutrinos rem…

Aims. We present a new neutrino-blazar multiwavelength flare coincidence observed in the blazar PKS 0215+015, which showed a strong multiwavelength outburst in coincidence with the…
The IXPE and multifrequency polarimetric view of the extreme blazars 1ES 1101-232 and RGB J0710+591
Fabrizio Tavecchio, Dawoon E. Kim, Gabriel Emery +53
Multiwavelength polarimetry is a powerful tool to probe magnetic field and flow geometries in the relativistic jets of blazars. In this respect, particularly interesting are the so…
A broadband study of FRB20240114A with the Effelsberg 100-m radio telescope
P. Limaye, L. G. Spitler, N. Manaswini +5
We present Effelsberg 100-m telescope observations of the hyperactive repeating fast radio burst source FRB 20240110A, discovered by CHIME/FRB in January 2024. Using the Ultra Broa…
The most distant -ray flare to date: a multiwavelength campaign on the blazar GB6 B1428+4217
Andrea Gokus, Manel Errando, Ivan Agudo +12
In November 2023, the Fermi Large Area Telescope detected a -ray flare from the high-redshift blazar GB6 B1428+4217 (). We initiated a multi-wavelength follow-up campai…
Unveiling blazar synchrotron emission: a multiwavelength polarimetric study of HSP and LSP populations
Sara Capecchiacci, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +96
Polarimetric properties of blazars allow us to put constraints on the acceleration mechanisms that fuel their powerful jets. By studying the multiwavelength polarimetric behaviour…
Very-high-energy gamma-ray detection and long-term multi-wavelength view of the flaring blazar B2 1811+31
K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +231
Among the blazars whose emission has been detected up to very-high-energy (VHE; 100 GeV < E < 100 TeV) gamma rays, intermediate synchrotron-peaked BL Lacs (IBLs) are quite rare. Th…

A gamma-ray flare from TXS 1508+572: characterizing the jet of a blazar in the early Universe
Andrea Gokus, Markus Böttcher, Manel Errando +13
Blazars can be detected from very large distances due to their high luminosity. However, the detection of -ray emission of blazars beyond has only been confirmed for a sma…
