Spectral Monitoring of Mrk 421 during 2004
Daily monitoring of Mrk 421 in the X-ray and TeV bands during the first half of 2004 showed rapid flaring events above an elevated base flux level, culminating from March to May 2004 at an average flux level matching the highest detected flux state in 2001. Here we summarise the daily X-ray spectral variability observed with the RXTE-PCA instrument. We also explore the X-ray and TeV gamma-ray c...
متن کاملSearch for an extended VHE γ-ray emission from Mrk 421 and Mrk 501 with the MAGIC Telescope
Context. Part of the very high energy γ-ray radiation coming from extragalactic sources is absorbed through the pair production process on the extragalactic background light photons. Extragalactic magnetic fields alter the trajectories of these cascade pairs and, in turn, convert cosmic background photons to γ-ray energies by inverse Compton scattering. These secondary photons can form an exten...
متن کاملSTACEE Observations of Mrk 421 During the 2001 Flare
STACEE is a ground based γ-ray observatory that uses a heliostat array, built for solar energy research, to detect atmospheric Cherenkov radiation from γ-ray initiated extensive air showers. During the first half of 2001, a prototype detector, STACEE-48, was used to detect the blazar Markarian 421, which was in an extremely active state. Observations from March to May of 2001 yielded an integra...
متن کاملNewton timing mode observations of Mrk 421
We present the results of a detailed temporal analysis of the bright BL Lac object Mrk 421 using the three available long timing mode observations by the EPIC PN camera. This detector mode is characterized by its long life time and is largely free of photon pile-up problems. The source was found in different intensity and variability states differing by up to more than a factor of three in coun...
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....
