Prompt Searches for Very-High-Energy γ-Ray Counterparts to IceCube Astrophysical Neutrino Alerts

J. Abhir, A. Biland, K. Brand +817

The search for sources of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos can be significantly advanced through a multi-messenger approach, which seeks to detect the gamma rays that accompany…

Rapid Variability of Mrk 421 During Extreme Flaring as Seen Through the Eyes of XMM-Newton

A. Gokus, J. Wilms, M. Kadler +31

By studying the variability of blazars across the electromagnetic spectrum, it is possible to resolve the underlying processes responsible for rapid flux increases, so-called flare…

Rapid X-ray Variability in Mkn 421 during a Multiwavelength Campaign

Alex G. Markowitz, Krzysztof Nalewajko, Gopal Bhatta +47

The study of short-term variability properties in AGN jets has the potential to shed light on their particle acceleration and emission mechanisms. We report results from a four-day…

Statistical properties of flux variations in blazar light curves at GeV and TeV energies

Sarah M. Wagner, Paul R. Burd, Daniela Dorner +23

Despite numerous detections of individual flares, the physical origin of the rapid variability observed from blazars remains uncertain. Using Bayesian blocks and the Eisenstein-Hut…

Long-term multi-band photometric monitoring of Mrk 501

Axel Arbet-Engels, Dominik Baack, Matteo Balbo +18

Radio-to-TeV observations of the bright nearby (z=0.034) blazar Markarian 501 (Mrk 501), performed from December 2012 to April 2018, are used to study the emission mechanisms in it…

Relentless multi-wavelength variability of Mrk 421 and Mrk 501

Vitalii Sliusar, Axel Arbet-Engels, Dominik Baack +18

Mrk 421 and Mrk 501 are two close, bright and well-studied high-synchrotron-peaked blazars, which feature bright and persistent GeV and TeV emission. We use the longest and densest…
