Multi-frequency Study of Intraday Variable Sources
Intraday variability (IDV) of compact extragalactic radio sources is a complex phenomenon and shows a wavelength dependent mixture of refractive interstellar scintillation (RISS) (dominant at long cm-wavelengths) and source-intrinsic effects (dominant at shorter wavelengths). Detailed investigations of individual sources and new high frequency observations suggest a source-intrinsic contributio...
متن کاملIntrinsic intraday variability in the gravitational lens system
Radio monitoring of the gravitational lens system B0218+357 reveals it to be a highly variable source with variations on timescales of a few days correlated in both images. This shows that the variability is intrinsic to the background lensed source and suggests that similar variations in other intraday variable sources can also be intrinsic in origin.
متن کاملVLBI Polarization Observations of Intraday Variability
Global 6 cm VLBI polarization observations of the intraday variable sources 0716+714, 0917+624, and 0954+658 are analyzed. Integrated VLA measurements during the VLBI observations suggest that although there were no substantial total intensity variations, the polarization for all three sources varied signiicantly during the 24-hour VLBI experiment. The VLBI data were divided into 2{3 hour segme...
متن کاملNear Infrared Intraday Variability of Mrk 421
We report results from our monitoring of the BL Lac object Mrk 421 in the near-IR J band. The observations, aimed at studying the intraday variability (IDV) of the object, were carried out systematically over an extended (and near-continuous) period of eight nights from the 1.2m Mount Abu Infrared Telescope, India. There are limited studies for Mrk 421 in the J band for such an extended period....
متن کاملIntraday variability in x - ray selected BL
We present a study of the intraday variability behaviour of two samples of x-ray selected BL Lac objects, the EMSS and EXOSAT samples consisting of 22 and 11 sources, respectively. In both samples we were able to detect intraday variability in less than 40% of the sources only. The duty cycle (the fraction of time, when a BL Lac object is variable) in x-ray selected BL Lac objects is 0.4 or les...
