Synchrotron emission from the blazar PG 1553+113. An analysis of its flux and polarization variability
C. M. Raiteri, F. Nicastro, A. Stamerra +4
In 2015 July 29 - September 1 the satellite XMM-Newton pointed at the BL Lac object PG 1553+133 six times, collecting data for 218 hours. During one of these epochs, simultaneous o…
Exceptional outburst of the blazar CTA 102 in 2012: The GASP-WEBT campaign and its extension
V. M. Larionov, M. Villata, C. M. Raiteri +49
After several years of quiescence, the blazar CTA 102 underwent an exceptional outburst in 2012 September-October. The flare was tracked from gamma-ray to near-infrared frequencies…
Polarization angle swings in blazars: The case of 3C 279
S. Kiehlmann, T. Savolainen, S. G. Jorstad +61
Over the past few years, several occasions of large, continuous rotations of the electric vector position angle (EVPA) of linearly polarized optical emission from blazars have been…
