A Possible Short-Timescale Optical Quasi-Periodic Oscillation in PKS\,080507 from High-Cadence TESS Observations
Sikandar Akbar, Zahir Shah, Athar A. Dar +1
We present a timing analysis of the high-cadence optical light curve of the high-redshift flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS\,080507 obtained during \textit{TESS} Sector~34 (MJD~=~5…
Broadband Variability Analysis of FSRQ PKS\,0402-362 with Indications of Quasi-Periodic Modulation
Zeeshan Nazir, Sikandar Akbar, Zahir Shah +2
We present a comprehensive temporal and spectral study of the flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS~0402362 using \textit{Fermi}-LAT/Swift-XRT/UVOT observations spanning from MJD 54686…
Multiwavelength spectral and temporal analysis of VHE Blazar 1ES 1959+650: Tracing emission mechanisms across flux states
Peer Anjum, Athar A. Dar, Zahir Shah +2
The high-synchrotron-peaked BL Lac object 1ES\,1959+650 exhibited pronounced activity between MJD~60310 -- 60603, including a very high energy (VHE) detection reported by LHAASO. T…
Comprehensive Variability Analysis of Blazars Using Fermi Light Curves Across Multiple Timescales
Zahir Shah, Athar A. Dar, Sikandar Akbar +8
In this study, we conducted a systematic analysis of long-term Fermi-LAT γ-ray data for a sample of blazars, including FSRQs, BL\,Lacs, and BCUs, to investigate their -ray varia…
Statistical Insights into Flux and Photon Index Distributions of VHE FSRQs from Fermi-LAT Observations
Zahoor Malik, Sikandar Akbar, Zahir Shah +8
This study examines the flux and photon index distributions of 11 Very High Energy (VHE) Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs) using over 16 years of Fermi-LAT -ray data. The dist…
Signature of hadronic emission in gamma-ray spectrum of B2 1308+326
Athar A. Dar, Zahir shah, Sunder Sahayanathan +3
The Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ) B2\,1308+326 was in its highest -ray flaring state during 60260-60310\,MJD. During this period, the source was detected in very high energy…
Broadband spectral and temporal study of Ton 599 during the brightest January 2023 flare
Aaqib Manzoor, Zahir Shah, Sunder Sahayanathan +2
In this work, we provide a detailed analysis of the broadband temporal and spectral properties of the blazar Ton\,599 by using the observations from \emph{Fermi}-LAT and \emph{Swif…
Can FSRQ 3C 345 be a Very High Energy Blazar Candidate?
Athar A. Dar, Sunder Sahayanathan, Zahir Shah +1
The recent detection of very high energy (VHE) emissions from flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) at high redshifts has revealed that the universe is more transparent to VHE -ra…
