The exceptional 2017 gamma-ray flare of the radio galaxy NGC 1275: VERITAS and Multiwavelength Observations

A. Acharyya, A. Archer, P. Bangale +66

The radio galaxy NGC 1275 is the Brightest Cluster Galaxy in the Perseus cluster. It is well-studied across all wavebands, including Very High Energy (VHE; E>100GeV gamma-rays, and…

First detection of VHE gamma-ray signal from the FSRQ TON 0599

MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +245

TON\,0599 (z=0.7247) belongs to the few flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) detected in the very high energy (VHE, \,GeV) gamma-ray band. Its redshift makes it currently o…

Multiband optical variability on diverse timescales of the blazar Ton 599 from 2011 to 2023

O. Vince, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +72

(Shortened)Context: We analyze the optical variability of the FSRQ Ton 599 using BVRI photometry from the WEBT collaboration (2011-2023), complemented by photometric and spectrosco…

The polarisation behaviour of OJ 287 viewed through radio, millimetre and optical observations between 2015 and 2017

J. Jormanainen, T. Hovatta, E. Lindfors +13

OJ 287 is a bright blazar with century-long observations, and one of the strongest candidates to host a supermassive black hole binary. Its polarisation behaviour between 2015 and…

Gamma rays from the quasar PKS 1441+25: story of an escape

A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +103

Outbursts from gamma-ray quasars provide insights on the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei and constraints on the diffuse radiation fields that fill the Universe. The det…

Discovery of a new TeV gamma-ray source: VER J0521+211

VERITAS Collaboration, S. Archambault, T. Arlen +83

We report the detection of a new TeV gamma-ray source, VER J0521+211, based on observations made with the VERITAS imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope array. These observations…

Rapid TeV Gamma-Ray Flaring of BL Lacertae

T. Arlen, T. Aune, M. Beilicke +83

We report on the detection of a very rapid TeV gamma-ray flare from BL Lacertae on 2011 June 28 with the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS). The flar…
