Constraining relativistic bow shock properties in rotation-powered millisecond pulsar binaries
(AAS, 2017)Multiwavelength follow-up of unidentified Fermi sources has vastly expanded the number of known galactic-field "black widow" and "redback" millisecond pulsar binaries. Focusing on their rotation-powered state, we interpret ... -
Monitoring of the radio galaxy M 87 at Very High Energy with MAGIC during a low emission state between 2012 and 2015
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2017)We present the preliminary results from observing the nearby radio galaxy M 87 for 156 hours (between the years 2012 and 2015) with the MAGIC telescopes, which lead to a significant very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) ... -
MSP binaries as astrophysical laboratories
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2018)Follow-up of unidentified Fermi sources has expanded the number of known galactic-field “black widow” and “redback” millisecond pulsar binaries from four to nearly 30. Several systems observed by Chandra, XMM-Newton, Suzaku, ... -
Multiwavelength study of quiescent states of Mrk 421 with unprecedented hard x-ray coverage provided by NuSTAR in 2013
(IOP Publishing, 2016)We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the bright, nearby BL Lacertae object Mrk 421 taken in 2013 January–March, involving GASP-WEBT, Swift, NuSTAR, Fermi-LAT, MAGIC, VERITAS, and other collaborations and ... -
Radiation and polarization signatures of the 3D multizone time-dependent hadronic blazar model
(IOP Publishing, 2016)We present a newly developed time-dependent three-dimensional multizone hadronic blazar emission model. By coupling a Fokker–Planck-based lepto-hadronic particle evolution code, 3DHad, with a polarization-dependent radiation ... -
Resonant inverse Compton scattering spectra from highly magnetized neutron stars
(IOP Publishing, 2018)Hard, nonthermal, persistent pulsed X-ray emission extending between 10 and ~150 keV has been observed in nearly 10 magnetars. For inner-magnetospheric models of such emission, resonant inverse Compton scattering of soft ...
