Intranight optical variability of Blazars
We present results of a multi-epoch intra-night optical monitoring of eleven blazars consisting of six BL Lac objects and five radio core-dominated quasars (CDQs). These densely sampled and sensitive R-band CCD observations, carried out from November 1998 through May 2002 during a total of 47 nights with an average of 6.5 hours/night, have enabled us to detect variability amplitudes as low as ∼...
متن کاملIntranight polarization variability in radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN
Intranight polarization variability in AGN has not been studied extensively so far. Studying the variability in polarization makes it possibly to distinguish between different emission mechanisms. Thus it can help answering the question if intranight variability in radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN is of the same or of fundamentally different origin. In this paper we investigate intranight polariz...
متن کاملRapid Multiwaveband Polarization Variability in the Quasar PKS 0420−014: Optical Emission from the Compact Radio Jet
An 11-day monitoring campaign in late 2005 reveals clear correlation in polarization between the optical emission and the region of the intensity peak (the “pseudocore”) at the upstream end of the jet in 43 GHz Very Long Baseline Array images in the highly variable quasar PKS 0420−014. The electric-vector position angle (EVPA) of the pseudocore rotated by about 80 in four VLBA observations over...

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
15 صفحه اولThe Polarization Variability in the Optical Afterglow of GRB 990712
In a recent paper, Rol and colleagues present evidence for a variable polarization in the optical afterglow following the gamma-ray burst GRB 990712. The variation is highly significant, but the position angle appears time independent. Contrary to their conclusion, we point out that this can in fact be explained with existing afterglow models, namely that of a laterally expanding jet. Subject h...
