The radio delay of the exceptional 3C 454.3 outburst. Follow-up WEBT observations in 2005-2006
M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri, M. F. Aller
In spring 2005 the blazar 3C 454.3 was observed in an unprecedented bright state from the near-IR to the hard X-ray frequencies. A mm outburst peaked in June-July 2005, and it was…
Multi-frequency monitoring of gamma-ray loud blazars: I. Light curves and spectral energy distributions
U. Bach, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +23
Context: Being dominated by non-thermal emission from aligned relativistic jets, blazars allow us to elucidate the physics of extragalactic jets, and, ltimately, how the energy is…
The unprecedented optical outburst of the quasar 3C 454.3. The WEBT campaign of 2004-2005
M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri, T. J. Balonek
The radio quasar 3C 454.3 underwent an exceptional optical outburst lasting more than 1 year and culminating in spring 2005. The maximum brightness detected was R = 12.0, which rep…
Multiwavelength Observations of 3C 66A during the WEBT campaign of 2003 - 2004
M. Boettcher, J. Harvey, M. Joshi
The BL Lac object 3C 66A was the target of an extensive multiwavelength monitoring campaign from July 2003 through April 2004, involving observations throughout the electromagnetic…
The WEBT BL Lacertae Campaign 2001 and its extension
M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri
BL Lacertae has been the target of four observing campaigns by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) collaboration. In this paper we present light curves obtained by the…
