Multiwavelength variability study and search for periodicity of PKS 1510-089

G. Castignani, E. Pian, T. M. Belloni +14

Blazars are the most luminous and variable AGNs, and thus excellent probes of accretion and emission processes close to the central engine. We focus on PKS 1510-089 (), one…

An active state of the BL Lac Object Markarian 421 detected by INTEGRAL in April 2013

E. Pian, M. Tuerler, M. Fiocchi +22

Multiwavelength variability of blazars offers indirect insight into their powerful engines and on the mechanisms through which energy is propagated from the centre down the jet. Th…

IGRJ18179-1621: An obscured X-ray pulsar discovered by INTEGRAL

E. Bozzo, C. Ferrigno, M. Tuerler +2

We report on all the INTEGRAL and Swift data collected during the first outburst observed from IGRJ18179-1621. The broad-band spectral analysis showed that the X-ray emission from…

Multiple synchrotron self-Compton modeling of gamma-ray flares in 3C 279

Marc Türler, Claes-Ingvar Björnsson

The correlation often observed in blazars between optical-to-radio outbursts and gamma-ray flares suggests that the high-energy emission region shall be co-spatial with the radio k…

The brightest gamma-ray flaring blazar in the sky: AGILE and multi-wavelength observations of 3C 454.3 during November 2010

S. Vercellone, E. Striani, V. Vittorini +84

Since 2005, the blazar 3C 454.3 has shown remarkable flaring activity at all frequencies, and during the last four years it has exhibited more than one gamma-ray flare per year, be…

INTEGRAL observations of the GeV blazar PKS1502+106 and of the hard X-ray bright Seyfert Galaxy Mkn841

E. Pian, P. Ubertini, A. Bazzano +15

Extragalactic nuclear activity is best explored with observations at high energies, where the most extreme flux and spectral variations are expected to occur, witnessing changes in…
