Discovery of very high energy γ-ray emission from the BL Lacertae object PKS 0301-243 with H.E.S.S.
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
The active galactic nucleus PKS 0301−243 (z = 0.266) is a high-synchrotron-peaked BL Lac object that is detected at high energies (HE, 100 MeV < E < 100 GeV) by Fermi/LAT. This paper reports on the discovery of PKS 0301−243 ...
Testing two-component models on very high-energy gamma-ray-emitting BL Lac objects
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
Context. It has become evident that one-zone synchrotron self-Compton models are not always adequate for very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray-emitting blazars. While two-component models perform better, they are difficult to ...
Fermi/LAT counterparts of IceCube neutrinos above 100 TeV
(EDP Sciences, 2018)
The IceCube Collaboration has published four years of data and the observed neutrino flux is significantly in excess of the expected atmospheric background. Due to the steeply falling atmospheric background spectrum, events ...
Optical variability in IBL S5 0716+714 during the 2013-2015 outbursts
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
With an aim to explore optical variability at diverse timescales in BL Lac source S5 0716+714, it was observed for 46 nights during 2013 January 14 to 2015 June 01 when it underwent two major outbursts. The observations ...
The awakening of BL Lacertae: observations by Fermi, Swift and the GASP-WEBT
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Since the launch of the Fermi satellite, BL Lacertae has been moderately active at γ-rays and optical frequencies until 2011 May, when the source started a series of strong flares. The exceptional optical sampling achieved ...
