The Method of Searching for Rotations of the Polarization Position Angle of Quasars
S. S. Savchenko, D. A. Morozova, S. G. Jorstad +11
Observations of quasars show that the polarization position angle of the emission coming from them varies greatly over time, including periods called rotations during which the ang…
The Repeating Flaring Activity of Blazar AO 0235+164
Juan Escudero Pedrosa, Iván Agudo, Andrea Tramacere +27
Context. Blazar AO 0235+164, located at redshift z = 0.94, has undergone several sharp multi-spectral-range flaring episodes during the last decades. In particular, the episodes pe…
Dissecting the long-term emission behaviour of the BL Lac object Mrk 421
M. I. Carnerero, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +4
We report on long-term multi-wavelength monitoring of blazar Mrk 421 by the GASP-WEBT collaboration and Steward Observatory, and by the Swift and Fermi satellites. We study the sou…
The Outburst of the Blazar S5 0716+71 in 2011 October: Shock in a Helical Jet
V. M. Larionov, S. G. Jorstad, A. P. Marscher +8
We present the results of optical (R band) photometric and polarimetric monitoring and Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) imaging of the blazar S5 0716+714 along with Fermi gamma-ray…
The GASP-WEBT monitoring of 3C 454.3 during the 2008 optical-to-radio and gamma-ray outburst
M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri, M. A. Gurwell +6
Since 2001, the radio quasar 3C 454.3 has undergone a period of high optical activity, culminating in the brightest optical state ever observed, during the 2004-2005 outburst. The…
