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…
Multiwavelength Study of Quiescent States of Mrk 421 with Unprecedented Hard X-Ray Coverage Provided by NuSTAR in 2013
M. Baloković, D. Paneque, G. Madejski +305
We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the bright, nearby BL Lac object Mrk 421 taken in 2013 January-March, involving GASP-WEBT, Swift, NuSTAR, Fermi-LAT, MAGIC, V…
Next Generation Very Large Array Memo No. 9 Science Working Group 4: Time Domain, Fundamental Physics, and Cosmology
Geoffrey C. Bower, Paul Demorest, James Braatz +20
We report here on key science topics for the Next Generation Very Large Array in the areas of time domain, fundamental physics, and cosmology. Key science cases considered are puls…
Why Haven't Many of the Brightest Radio Loud Blazars Been Detected by Fermi ?
M. L. Lister, M. F. Aller. H. D. Aller. T. Hovatta, W. Max-Morbeck +3
We use the complete MOJAVE 1.5 Jy sample of active galactic nuclei (AGN) to examine the gamma-ray detection statistics of the brightest radio-loud blazars in the northern sky. We f…
MAGIC detection of short-term variability of the high-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 0806+524
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi +152
The high-frequency-peaked BL Lac (HBL) 1ES 0806+524 (z = 0.138) was discovered in VHE rays in 2008. Until now, the broad-band spectrum of 1ES 0806+524 has been only poorly char…
A combined radio and GeV gamma-ray view of the 2012 and 2013 flares of Mrk 421
T. Hovatta, M. Petropoulou, J. L. Richards +8
In 2012 Markarian 421 underwent the largest flare ever observed in this blazar at radio frequencies. In the present study, we start exploring this unique event and compare it to a…
