X-ray and multiwavelength polarization of Mrk 501 from 2022 to 2023
Chien-Ting J. Chen, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +143
We present multiwavelength polarization measurements of the luminous blazar Mrk~501 over a 14-month period. The 2--8 keV X-ray polarization was measured with the Imaging X-ray Pola…
Testing particle acceleration in blazar jets with continuous high-cadence optical polarization observations
Ioannis Liodakis, Sebastian Kiehlmann, Alan P. Marscher +44
Variability can be the pathway to understanding the physical processes in astrophysical jets, however, the high-cadence observations required to test particle acceleration models a…
Galaxy-group-associated distances to Very High Energy gamma-ray emitting BL Lacs KUV 00311-1938 and S2 0109+22
Karri I. I. Koljonen, Elina Lindfors, Kari Nilsson +2
Blazars constitute the most numerous source class in the known extragalactic population of very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray sources. However, determining their redshifts is often c…
IXPE observation of PKS 2155-304 reveals the most highly polarized blazar
Pouya M. Kouch, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +133
We report the X-ray polarization properties of the high-synchrotron-peaked (HSP) blazar PKS 2155304 based on observations with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). We…
The variability patterns of the TeV blazar PG 1553+113 from a decade of MAGIC and multi-band observations
MAGIC Collaboration, H. Abe, S. Abe +264
PG 1553+113 is one of the few blazars with a convincing quasi-periodic emission in the gamma-ray band. The source is also a very high-energy (VHE; >100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter. To b…
Performance and first measurements of the MAGIC Stellar Intensity Interferometer
MAGIC Collaboration, S. Abe, J. Abhir +217
In recent years, a new generation of optical intensity interferometers has emerged, leveraging the existing infrastructure of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs). The…
