Search for AGN counterparts of unidentified Fermi-LAT sources with optical polarimetry: Demonstration of the technique

N. Mandarakas, D. Blinov, I. Liodakis +12

The third Fermi-LAT catalog (3FGL) presented the data of the first four years of observations from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope mission. There are 3034 sources, 1010 of whic…

High cadence, linear and circular polarization monitoring of OJ 287 - Helical magnetic field in a bent jet

I. Myserlis, S. Komossa, E. Angelakis +5

We present a multi-frequency, dense radio monitoring program of the blazar OJ287 using the 100m Effelsberg radio telescope. We analyze the evolution in total flux density, linear a…

Optical polarisation variability of narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies

E. Angelakis, S. Kiehlmann, I. Myserlis +6

We have monitored the R-band optical linear polarisation of ten jetted NLSy1 galaxies with the aim to quantify their variability and search for candidate long rotation of the polar…

Optical polarisation variability of radio loud narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies. Search for long rotations of the polarisation plane

E. Angelakis, S. Kiehlmann, I. Myserlis +5

Narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLSy1s) constitute the AGN subclass associated with systematically smaller black hole masses. A few radio loud ones have been detected in MeV -- GeV…

Multi-wavelength characterization of the blazar S5~0716+714 during an unprecedented outburst phase

MAGIC Collaboration, M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi +187

The BL Lac object S5~0716+714, a highly variable blazar, underwent an impressive outburst in January 2015 (Phase A), followed by minor activity in February (Phase B). The MAGIC obs…

Detection of persistent VHE gamma-ray emission from PKS 1510-089 by the MAGIC telescopes during low states between 2012 and 2017

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +165

PKS 1510-089 is a flat spectrum radio quasar strongly variable in the optical and GeV range. We search for low-state VHE gamma-ray emission from PKS 1510-089. We aim to characteriz…
