Early multi-wavelength emission from Gamma-ray Bursts: from Gamma-ray to X-ray
The study of the early high-energy emission from both long and short Gamma-ray bursts has been revolutionized by the Swift mission. The rapid response of Swift shows that the non-thermal X-ray emission transitions smoothly from the prompt phase into a decaying phase whatever the details of the light curve. The decay is often categorized by a steep-to-shallow transition suggesting that the promp...
متن کاملRadio variability of the gamma - ray blazar 0202 + 149
Analysis of radio light curves of the γ-ray bright blazar 0202+149 at frequencies of 37, 22, 14.5, 8, and 4.8 GHz during the period 1984-1998 reveals a 4-year cycle of variability with substructure on a shorter time scale of about 1.3-yr. The 4.8-37 GHz spectral index of the source gradually increases from −0.04 (T=1990.2) to 0.4 (T=1996.6) and during outbursts shows strong variations with a ti...
متن کاملThe Gamma-ray Blazar Content of the Northern Sky
Using survey data, we have re-evaluated the correlation of flat spectrum radio sources with EGRET sources in the Northern sky. A likelihood analysis incorporating the radio and X-ray properties and the γ-ray source localization is used to gauge the reliability of associations and to search for counterparts of previously unidentified EGRET sources. Above |b|=10, where the classification is compl...
متن کاملThe VLBA-BU-BLAZAR Multi-Wavelength Monitoring Program
We describe a multiwavelength program of monitoring of a sample of bright γ-ray blazars, which the Boston University (BU) group has being carrying out since June 2007. The program includes monthly monitoring with the Very Long Baseline Array at 43 GHz, optical photometric and polarimetric observations, construction and analysis of UV and X-ray light curves obtained with the Rossi X-ray Timing E...
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...
