Constraints on the emission region of 3C 279 during strong flares in 2014 and 2015 through VHE γ-ray observations with H.E.S.S.
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
The flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 is known to exhibit pronounced variability in the high-energy (100 MeV < E < 100 GeV) γ-ray band, which is continuously monitored with Fermi-LAT. During two periods of high activity ...
Cloud ablation by a relativistic jet and the extended flare in CTA 102 in 2016 and 2017
(IOP, 2017)
In late 2016 and early 2017, the flat spectrum radio quasar CTA 102 exhibited a very strong and long-lasting
outburst. The event can be described by a roughly two-month long increase of the baseline flux in the monitored
energy ...
The extended flare in CTA 102 in 2016 and 2017 within a hadronic model through cloud ablation by the relativistic jet
(IOP Publishing, 2019)
The flat-spectrum radio quasar CTA 102 (redshift 1.037) exhibited a tremendously bright four-month-long outburst from late 2016 to early 2017. In a previous paper, we interpreted the event as the ablation of a gas cloud ...
Characterizing the γ-ray long-term variability of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Studying the temporal variability of BL Lac objects at the highest energies provides unique insights into the extreme physical processes occurring in relativistic jets and in the vicinity of super-massive black holes. To ...
Leptonic and lepto-hadronic modeling of the 2010 November flare from 3C 454.3
(AAS, 2016)
In this study, we use a one-zone leptonic and a lepto-hadronic model to investigate the multi-wavelength emission and prominent flare of the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 454.3 in 2010 November. We perform a parameter study ...
