General information
- Name of the source: OP313
- Brief description of the source:
- - Object type : FSRQ
- - Redshift : z=0.997 (Schneider et al. 2010, AJ, 139, 2360)
Atel
The Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) on La Palma has been monitoring the very distant Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ) OP 313 (z=0.997, Schneider et al. 2010, AJ, 139, 2360) since November 2023. Following the announcement of enhanced gamma-ray emission by Fermi-LAT (ATel #16356) and several optical facilities (ATel #16360) in early December, the Fermi- LAT emission of OP 313 has been closely monitored using the FlaapLUC pipeline (Astronomy and Computing, Volume 22, p. 9-15, 2018). This monitoring revealed the detection of renewed activity in the high-energy (HE, E>100 MeV) band and so, Target of Opportunity observations with LST-1 were triggered on December 10th 2023. OP 313 was detected by LST-1 with a preliminary offline analysis using data from 2023/12/11 to 2023/12/14. It was detected with a significance greater than 5 sigma and an integrated flux, above 100 GeV, at 15% flux of the Crab Nebula. LST-1 observations on OP 313 will continue during the next few nights and therefore multi-wavelength observations are highly encouraged. LST-1 is a prototype of the Large-Sized Telescope for the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory, and is located on the Canary island of La Palma, Spain. The telescope design is optimized for observation of gamma rays in the range from 20 GeV to 3 TeV. The preliminary offline analysis has been performed by Daniel Morcuende (dmorcuende@iaa.es), Jorge Otero-Santos (joteros@iaa.es) and Seiya Nozaki (nozaki@mpp.mpg.de). The LST-1 contact persons for these observations are Masahiro Teshima (mteshima@mpp.mpg.de) and Juan Cortina (juan.cortina@ciemat.es).
