Field Camera Unit for WSO-UV: Phase A Study Report
I. Pagano, F. Bacciotti, L. Bedin +33
World Space Observatory UltraViolet (WSO-UV) is a multipurpose space observatory, made by a 170 cm aperture telescope, capable of UV high-resolution spectroscopy, long slit low-res…
INTEGRAL and Swift Observations of Blazars in Outburst
Elena Pian, Luigi Foschini, Gabriele Ghisellini
The blazars 3C 454.3, PKS 0537-441 and PKS 2155-304 are traditionally known to be among the most active sources of this class. They emit at all frequencies, up to the gamma-rays, a…
Simultaneous Swift and REM monitoring of the blazar PKS0537-441 in 2005
E. Pian, P. Romano, A. Treves +24
The blazar PKS0537-441 has been observed by Swift between the end of 2004 and November 2005. The BAT monitored it recurrently for a total of 2.7 Ms, and the XRT and UVOT pointed it…
Swift follow-up of the gigantic TeV outburst of PKS 2155-304 in 2006
L. Foschini, G. Ghisellini, F. Tavecchio +12
At the end of July 2006, the blazar PKS 2155-304 (z=0.116) underwent a strong outburst observed at TeV energies by HESS (up to 17 Crab flux level at E > 200 GeV). The Swift satelli…
X-ray/UV/Optical follow-up of the blazar PKS 2155-304 after the giant TeV flares of July 2006
L. Foschini, G. Ghisellini, F. Tavecchio +12
We present all the publicly available data, from optical/UV wavelengths (UVOT) to X-rays (XRT, BAT), obtained from Swift observations of the blazar PKS 2155-304, performed in respo…
The nature of the dwarf starforming galaxy associated with GRB 060218 / SN2006aj
K. Wiersema, S. Savaglio, P. M. Vreeswijk +9
We present high resolution VLT UVES and low resolution FORS optical spectroscopy of supernova 2006aj and its host galaxy, associated with the nearby (z = 0.03342) gamma-ray burst G…
