Intra-Day Simultaneous Optical Monitoring of S5 0716+714

چکیده
We present the results of simultaneous optical multi-color observations of BL Lac object 0716+714 in November 2014 and February 2016. The intra-day variability (IDV) varies from 0.04 to 0.3 mags. Both achromatic and bluer-when-brighter (BWB) color behaviors were detected. A probable quasi-periodic oscillation overlapping on a significant flare was also observed. We used the interpolated cross-correlation function to calculate time lags between light curves in different bands. Variations in the B and R lagging behind that in the I band were found, which corresponds with anti-clockwise loops on the color-magnitude diagrams.

Multiband optical monitoring of the blazars S 5 0716 + 714 and BL
We report results of multiband optical photometric monitoring of two well known blazars, S5 0716+714 and BL Lacertae, carried out during 1996 and 2000−01 with an aim to study optical variations on time scales ranging from minutes to hours and longer. The light curves were derived relative to comparison stars present on the CCD frames. Night to night intensity variations of > 0.1 mag were observ...
متن کاملOptical Intra-day Variability in Blazars
We selected a sample of a dozen blazars which are the prime candidates for simultaneous multi-wavelength observing campaigns in their outburst phase. We searched for optical outbursts, intra-day variability and short term variability in these blazars. We carried out optical photometric monitoring of nine of these blazars in 13 observing nights during our observing run October 27, 2006 − March 2...
متن کاملSimultaneous BV R Monitoring of BL Lacertae Object S5 0716+714: Detection of Time Lags between Variations at Different Wavelengths and Study of Color Behavior
We present the results of our optical monitoring of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714 on seven nights in 2006 December. The monitoring was carried out simultaneously at three optical wavelengths with a novel photometric system. The object did not show strong internight variations, but displayed clear intranight variations. It tended to have larger variation amplitudes at shorter wavelengths. Cross ...
متن کاملPeriodic Oscillations in the Intra - day Optical Light Curves of the Blazar S 5 0716 + 714
We present results of a periodicity search of 20 intra-day variable optical light curves of the blazar S5 0716+714, selected from a database of 102 light curves spanning over three years. We use a wavelet analysis technique along with a randomization test and find strong candidates for nearly periodic variations in eight light curves, with probabilities ranging from 95% to >99%. This is the fir...
متن کاملThe BL Lac objects OQ 530 and S 5 0716 + 714 Simultaneous observations in the X – rays , radio , optical and TeV bands
We present the results of the BeppoSAX observations of two BL Lacs, OQ 530 and S5 0716+714, as part of a ToO program for the simultaneous observation at radio, optical, X–ray and TeV energies. Both sources are detected in the LECS and MECS, with S5 0716+714 visible also in the PDS band, up to about ∼ 60 keV. The X-ray spectra of both sources are better fitted by a double power–law model, with a...
