Evidence for planetary hypothesis for PTFO 8-8695b with five-year optical/infrared monitoring observations

Yuta Tanimoto, Takuya Yamashita, Takahiro Ui +16

PTFO 8-8695b (CVSO 30b) is a young planet candidate whose host star is a 2.6 Myr-old T-Tauri star, and there have been continuous discussions about the nature of this system…

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…

Optical and Near-Infrared Polarimetry for a Highly Dormant Comet 209P/LINEAR

Daisuke Kuroda, Masateru Ishiguro, Makoto Watanabe +24

We conducted an optical and near-infrared polarimetric observation of the highly dormant Jupiter-Family Comet, 209P/LINEAR. Because of its low activity, we were able to determine t…

Suzaku X-Ray Monitoring of Gamma-Ray-Emitting Radio Galaxy, NGC 1275

Ikumi Edahiro, Yasushi Fukazawa, Kenji Kawaguchi +4

NGC 1275 is a gamma-ray-emitting radio galaxy at the center of the Perseus cluster. Its multi-wavelength spectrum is similar to that of blazers, and thus a jet-origin of gamma-ray…

Study for relation between direction of relativistic jet and optical polarization angle with multi-wavelength observation

Ryosuke Itoh, Yasushi FUkazawa, Yasuyuki T. Tanaka +5

Blazars are thought to possess a relativistic jet that is pointing toward the direction of the Earth and the elect of relativistic beaming enhances its apparent brightness. They ra…
