Multiwavelength Observations of a Dramatic High-Energy Flare in the Blazar 3C 279
(1998-04-01)
The blazar 3C 279, one of the brightest identified extragalactic objects in the γ-ray sky, underwent a large (factor of ~10 in amplitude) flare in γ-rays toward the end of a 3 week pointing by Compton Gamma Ray Observatory ...
Multiwavelength observations of the February 1996 high-energy flare in the blazar 3C 279
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 1997-05-01)
We report CGRO, RXTE, ASCA, ROSAT, IUE, HST and ground-based observations of a large flare in 3C 279 in February 1996. X-rays and γ-rays peaked simultaneously (within one day). We show simultaneous spectral energy distributions ...
3C 279 Multiwavelength Monitoring II : The Ground-based Campaign
(1996-03-01)
The optically violently variable quasar 3C 279 was monitored simultaneously from radio to y-ray frequencies in 1992 December-1993 January. We report a detailed study of the ground-based results from radio to optical ...
The 1993 multiwavelength campaign on 3C 279 : the radio to gamma-ray energy distribution inlow state
(1994-11-01)
Simultaneous observations of 3C 279 at radio, millimeter, near-infrared, optical, ultraviolet (with IUE) and X-ray (with ROSAT) wavelengths were obtained in 1992 December-1993 January, during a three week pointing at the ...
