Optical Polarization and Spectral Variability in the M87 Jet
Eric S. Perlman, Steven C. Adams, Mihai Cara +10
During the last decade, M87's jet has been the site of an extraordinary variability event, with one knot (HST-1) increasing by over a factor 100 in brightness. Variability was also…
HST observations of the quasar PKS 0637-752: equipartition electron-proton jet from the most complete spectral coverage to date
Kushal T. Mehta, Markos Georganopoulos, Eric S. Perlman +2
We present new NICMOS and ACS observations of the quasar jet PKS 0637-752, and we use them, together with existing multiwavelength observations, to produce the most complete spectr…
The Continuing Saga of the Explosive Event(s) in the M87 Jet: Is M87 a Blazar?
D. E. Harris, C. C. Cheung, L. Stawarz +4
We review the recent data on the knot HST-1 in the M87 jet in the context of typical blazar behavior. In particular we discuss the wide-band flare of 2005 which peaked at a factor…
Discovery of Very High Energy gamma-rays from 1ES 1011+496 at z=0.212
MAGIC Collaboration, J. Albert
We report on the discovery of Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the BL Lacertae object 1ES1011+496. The observation was triggered by an optical outburst in March 2007…
A High Resolution X-ray Image of the Jet in M 87
H. L. Marshall, B. P. Miller, D. S. Davis +4
We present the first high resolution X-ray image of the jet in M 87 using the Chandra X-ray Observatory. There is clear structure in the jet and almost all of the optically bright…
