Profile Analysis of the Multiwavelength 2.1-year Oscillations of PG 1553+113
P. Peñil, P. Peñil, N. Torres-Albà +8
We investigate the morphology of the oscillation profiles of the blazar PG~1553+113 in relation to its well-known 2.1 yr periodicity. We identify individual cycles in the …
Testing X-ray Periodicity and Long-Term Trend in PG 1553+113 via Targeted Swift-XRT Monitoring
P. Peñil, N. Torres-AlbÃ, L. Marcotulli +5
PG~1553+113 is the blazar with the most-significantly detected periodic patter in its multiwavelength (MWL) emission, making it one of the most promising candidates for hosting a s…
Transient QPOs of Fermi-LAT blazars with Linearly Multiplicative Oscillations
P. Penil, J. Otero-Santos, A. Circiello +5
We present a study on the detection and characterization of transient quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the -ray emission of blazars 4C +31.03, MG1 J123931+0443, and PKS 16…
Distortions in Periodicity Analysis of Blazars II: The Impact of Gaps
P. Peñil, N. Torres-AlbÃ, A. Rico +4
Time series analysis is fundamental to characterizing the variability inherent in multi-wavelength emissions from blazars. However, a major observational challenge lies in the need…
Extensive Analysis of gamma-Ray Periodicity in Jetted AGN from the 4FGL Catalog Using Fermi-LAT Observations
P. Peñil, A. DomÃnguez, S. Buson +3
The quest to uncover periodic patterns within the -ray emissions of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGN) has recently emerged as a focal point in astrophysics. One of the primar…
Transient QPOs of Fermi-LAT blazars under the Curved Jet Model
P. Penil, J. Otero-Santos, A. Banerjee +4
This study explores transient quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the -ray emission of two blazars, PMN J05314827 and PKS 1502+106, using over a decade of Fermi Large Area…
