Systematic Study of Gamma-ray bright Blazars with Optical Polarization and Gamma-ray Variability
Ryosuke Itoh, Krzysztof Nalewajko, Yasushi Fukazawa +18
Blazars are highly variable active galactic nuclei which emit radiation at all wavelengths from radio to gamma-rays. Polarized radiation from blazars is one key piece of evidence f…
Multifrequency Photo-polarimetric WEBT Observation Campaign on the Blazar S5 0716+714: Source Microvariability and Search for Characteristic Timescales
G. Bhatta, Ł. Stawarz, M. Ostrowski +43
Here we report on the results of the WEBT photo-polarimetric campaign targeting the blazar S5~0716+71, organized in March 2014 to monitor the source simultaneously in BVRI and near…
Discovery of Dramatic Optical Variability in SDSS J1100+4421: A Peculiar Radio-Loud Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy?
Masaomi Tanaka, Tomoki Morokuma, Ryosuke Itoh +55
We present our discovery of dramatic variability in SDSS J1100+4421 by the high-cadence transient survey Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS). The source brightened in the optical by at le…
Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS): Survey Strategy
Tomoki Morokuma, Nozomu Tominaga, Masaomi Tanaka +58
The Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS) is a high-cadence optical wide-field supernova (SN) survey. The primary goal of the survey is to catch the very early light of a SN, during the sho…
Optical and Near-Infrared Polarimetry of Highly Reddened Type Ia Supernova 2014J: Peculiar Properties of Dust in M82
K. S. Kawabata, H. Akitaya, M. Yamanaka +46
We presented optical and near-infrared multi-band linear polarimetry of the highly reddened Type Ia SN~2014J appeared in M82. SN~2014J exhibits large polarization at shorter wavele…
