Multi-wavelength picture of the misaligned BL Lac object 3C 371

J. Otero-Santos, C. M. Raiteri, A. Tramacere +52

The BL Lac object 3C 371 is one of the targets that are regularly monitored by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) Collaboration to study blazar variability on both short and l…

Optical variability of the blazar 3C 371: from minute to year timescales

J. Otero-Santos, C. M. Raiteri, J. A. Acosta-Pulido +41

The BL Lac object 3C 371 has been observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (\textit{TESS}) for approximately a year, between July 2019 and July 2020, with an unmatched…

Extreme photometric and polarimetric variability of blazar S4 0954+65 at its maximum optical and -ray brightness levels

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. I. Carnerero +64

In 2022 the BL Lac object S4 0954+65 underwent a major variability phase, reaching its historical maximum brightness in the optical and -ray bands. We present optical photometri…

The optical behaviour of BL Lacertae at its maximum brightness levels: a blend of geometry and energetics

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, S. G. Jorstad +13

In 2021 BL Lacertae underwent an extraordinary activity phase, which was intensively followed by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) Collaboration. We present the WEBT optical…

Photometric variable stars in the young open cluster NGC 6823

Sneh Lata, W. P. Chen, J. C. Pandey +8

We present stellar variability towards the young open cluster NGC\,6823. Time series - and -band CCD photometry led to identification and characterization of 88 variable star…

The complex variability of blazars: Time-scales and periodicity analysis in S4 0954+65

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, V. M. Larionov +3

Among active galactic nuclei, blazars show extreme variability properties. We here investigate the case of the BL Lac object S4 0954+65 with data acquired in 2019-2020 by the Trans…
