AGILE detection of a rapid γ - ray flare from the blazar PKS 1510 - 089 during the GASP - WEBT monitoring ⋆
Context. We report the detection by the AGILE satellite of a rapid γ-ray flare from the source 1AGL J1511−0908, associated with the powerful γ-ray quasar PKS 1510−089, during a pointing centered on the Galactic Center region from 1 March to 30 March 2008. This source has been continuosly monitored in the radio-to-optical bands by the GLAST-AGILE Support Program (GASP) of the Whole Earth Blazar ...
متن کاملMultiwavelength Observations of the Powerful γ-ray Quasar PKS 1510−089: Clues on the Jet Composition
We present the results from a multiwavelength campaign conducted in August 2006 of the powerful γ-ray quasar PKS 1510−089 (z = 0.361). This campaign commenced with a deep Suzaku observation lasting three days for a total exposure time of 120 ks, and continued with Swift monitoring over 18 days. Besides Swift observations, which sampled the optical/UV flux in all 6 UVOT filters as well as the X-...
متن کاملTime-dependent simulations of emission from FSRQ PKS 1510−089: multiwavelength variability of external Compton and SSC models
We present results of modeling the broadband SED and multiwavelength variability of the bright FSRQ PKS 1510−089 with our time-dependent multizone Monte Carlo/Fokker-Planck code (Chen et al. 2011b). As the primary source of seed photons for inverse Compton scattering, we consider radiation from the broad line region (BLR), from the hot dust of the molecular torus, and the local synchrotron radi...
متن کاملVariable VHE gamma-ray emission from non-blazar AGNs
Context. The observation of rapidly variable very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays from non-aligned active galactic nuclei (AGNs), as reported from M87, proves challenging for conventional theoretical acceleration and emission models. Aims. Motivated by recent work on pulsar-type particle acceleration in M87 (Neronov & Aharonian 2007), we re-examine the centrifugal acceleration of particles by rota...
