The WEBT Campaign on the Intermediate BL Lac Object 3C66A in 2007-2008

M. Boettcher, K. Fultz

Prompted by a high optical state in September 2007, the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) consortium organized an intensive optical, near-IR (JHK) and radio observing campaign on…

A new activity phase of the blazar 3C 454.3. Multifrequency observations by the WEBT and XMM-Newton in 2007-2008

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, V. M. Larionov +2

We present and analyse the WEBT multifrequency observations of 3C 454.3 in the 2007-2008 observing season, including XMM-Newton observations and near-IR spectroscopic monitoring, a…

The high activity of 3C 454.3 in autumn 2007. Monitoring by the WEBT during the AGILE detection

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, W. P. Chen +5

The quasar-type blazar 3C 454.3 underwent a phase of high activity in summer and autumn 2007, which was intensively monitored in the radio-to-optical bands by the Whole Earth Blaza…

Multifrequency monitoring of the blazar 0716+714 during the GASP-WEBT-AGILE campaign of 2007

M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri, V. M. Larionov +5

Since the CGRO operation in 1991-2000, one of the primary unresolved questions about the blazar gamma-ray emission has been its possible correlation with the low-energy (in particu…

Radio-to-UV monitoring of AO 0235+164 by the WEBT and Swift during the 2006--2007 outburst

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, V. M. Larionov +2

The blazar AO 0235+164 was claimed to show a quasi-periodic behaviour in the radio and optical bands. Moreover, an extra emission component contributing to the UV and soft X-ray fl…
