Multiwavelength behaviour of the blazar 3C279: decade-long study from -ray to radio

V. M. Larionov, S. G. Jorstad, A. P. Marscher +84

We report the results of decade-long (2008-2018) -ray to 1 GHz radio monitoring of the blazar 3C 279, including GASP/WEBT, and data, as well as polarim…

Multiwavelength behaviour of the blazar OJ 248 from radio to γ-rays

M. I. Carnerero, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +4

We present an analysis of the multiwavelength behaviour of the blazar OJ 248 at z = 0.939 in the period 2006-2013. We use low-energy data (optical, near-infrared, and radio) obtain…

Infrared properties of blazars: putting the GASP-WEBT sources into context

C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. I. Carnerero +16

The infrared properties of blazars can be studied from the statistical point of view with the help of sky surveys, like that provided by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WI…
