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…
Exceptional outburst of the blazar CTA 102 in 2012: The GASP-WEBT campaign and its extension
V. M. Larionov, M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri +49
After several years of quiescence, the blazar CTA 102 underwent an exceptional outburst in 2012 September-October. The flare was tracked from gamma-ray to near-infrared frequencies…
Unprecedented study of the broadband emission of Mrk 421 during flaring activity in March 2010
The MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +251
A flare from the TeV blazar Mrk 421, occurring in March 2010, was observed for 13 consecutive days from radio to very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma-rays with MAGIC, VERITAS,…
The 72-Hour WEBT Microvariability Observation of Blazar S5 0716+714 in 2009
G. Bhatta, J. R. Webb, H. Hollingsworth +42
Context. The international whole earth blazar telescope (WEBT) consortium planned and carried out three days of intensive micro-variability observations of S5 0716+714 from Februar…
The awakening of BL Lacertae: observations by Fermi, Swift, and the GASP-WEBT
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, F. D'Ammando +4
Since the launch of the Fermi satellite, BL Lacertae has been moderately active at gamma-rays and optical frequencies until May 2011, when the source started a series of strong fla…
Variability of the blazar 4C 38.41 (B3 1633+382) from GHz frequencies to GeV energies
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, P. S. Smith +74
The quasar-type blazar 4C 38.41 (B3 1633+382) experienced a large outburst in 2011, which was detected throughout the entire electromagnetic spectrum. We present the results of low…
