Multi-band optical photometric variability of the blazar OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025

Alok C. Gupta, Karan Dogra, Mark Kidger +101

We present the most densely sampled multi-band optical photometric observations of the peculiar BL Lacertae object OJ 287 from 2015 to 2025 with a focus on its optical activity on…

Tracking down the broadband polarimetric properties of PG 1553+113

Riccardo Middei, Svetlana G. Jorstad, Alan P. Marscher +78

We report on a nine-month monitoring campaign of the blazar PG 1553+113, relying on three observations carried out in 2025 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and su…

Detection of optical quasi-periodic oscillation in the blazar 3C 454.3

Karan Dogra, Alok C. Gupta, C. M. Raiteri +83

We analyzed 19 years of -band data of the blazar 3C 454.3 from the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) archive, along with new data from its members and from public archives suc…

Multiband optical variability on diverse timescales of the blazar Ton 599 from 2011 to 2023

O. Vince, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +72

(Shortened)Context: We analyze the optical variability of the FSRQ Ton 599 using BVRI photometry from the WEBT collaboration (2011-2023), complemented by photometric and spectrosco…

Detection of Compton scattering in the jet of 3C 84

Ioannis Liodakis, Sudip Chakraborty, Frédéric Marin +77

3C 84 is the brightest cluster galaxy in the Perseus Cluster. It is among the closest radio-loud active galaxies and among the very few that can be detected from low frequency radi…

High optical to X-ray polarization ratio reveals Compton scattering in BL Lacertae's jet

Ivan Agudo, Ioannis Liodakis, Jorge Otero-Santos +147

Blazars, supermassive black hole systems (SMBHs) with highly relativistic jets aligned with the line of sight, are the most powerful long-lived emitters of electromagnetic emission…
