Detection of the distant quasar OP 313 with the first Large-Sized Telescope of CTAO

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +412

In December 2023, the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) detected for the first time VHE -ray emission from the FSRQ OP~313 becoming the furthest blazar ever observed at VH…

Insights from the first flaring activity of a high-synchrotron-peaked blazar with X-ray polarization and VHE gamma rays

MAGIC Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +250

We study a flaring activity of the HSP Mrk421 that was characterized from radio to very-high-energy (VHE; E TeV) gamma rays with MAGIC, Fermi-LAT, Swift, XMM-Newton and sever…

F-GAMMA: Variability Doppler factors of blazars from multiwavelength monitoring

I. Liodakis, N. Marchili, E. Angelakis +8

Recent population studies have shown that the variability Doppler factors can adequately describe blazars as a population. We use the flux density variations found within the exten…

RoboPol: The optical polarization of gamma-ray--loud and gamma-ray--quiet blazars

E. Angelakis, T. Hovatta, D. Blinov +25

We present average R-band optopolarimetric data, as well as variability parameters, from the first and second RoboPol observing season. We investigate whether gamma- ray--loud and…

RoboPol: optical polarization-plane rotations and flaring activity in blazars

D. Blinov, V. Pavlidou, I. E. Papadakis +26

We present measurements of rotations of the optical polarization of blazars during the second year of operation of RoboPol, a monitoring programme of an unbiased sample of gamma-ra…

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…
