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…

Tracking down the broadband polarimetric properties of PG 1553+113

Riccardo Middei, Svetlana G. Jorstad, Alan P. Marscher +78

We report on a nine-month monitoring campaign of the blazar PG 1553+113, relying on three observations carried out in 2025 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and su…

BlazEr1: The eROSITA Blazar Catalog. Blazars and Blazar Candidates in the First eROSITA Survey

S. Haemmerich, A. Gokus, F. McBride +28

Aims. eROSITA, on board the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft, performed its first X-ray all-sky survey (eRASS1) between December 2019 and June 2020. It detected about 93000…

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…

Rapid jet ejection from PKS 0215+015 coincident with a high-energy neutrino event

F. Eppel, M. Kadler, E. Ros +19

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…
