  • A Dust Lane in the Radio Galaxy 3C 270 
    Mahabal, A; Kembhavi, A; Singh, K. P; Bhat, P. N; Prabhu, T. P (American Astronomical Society, 1996-02)
    We present the broad band surface photometry of the radio galaxy 3C 270 (NGC 4261). We find a distinct dust lane in the V - R image of the galaxy and determine its oriantation and size. We use the major axis profile of the ...
  • Estimation of the size and structure of the broad line region using Bayesian approach 
    Mandal, A. K; Rakshit, S; Stalin, C. S; Petrov, R. G; Mathew, B; Sagar, R (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021-04)
    Understanding the geometry and kinematics of the broad line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is important to estimate black hole masses in AGN and study the accretion process. The technique of reverberation ...
  • Flux and polarization variability of OJ 287 during the early 2016 outburst 
    Rakshit, S; Stalin, C. S; Muneer, S; Neha, S; Paliya, Vaidehi S (IOP Publishing, 2017-02-01)
    The gamma-ray blazar OJ 287 was in a high activity state during 2015 December–2016 February. Coinciding with this high brightness state, we observed this source for photometry on 40 nights in R-band and for polarimetry on ...
  • Growth of disc-like pseudo-bulges in SDSS DR7 since z = 0.1 
    Ankit Kumar; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2022-08)
    Cosmological simulations predict more classical bulges than their observational counterparts in the local Universe. Here, we quantify evolution of the bulges since z = 0.1 using photometric parameters of nearly 39 000 ...
  • Intra-night optical variability characteristics of different classes of narrow-line seyfert 1 galaxies 
    Kshama, S. K; Paliya, Vaidehi S; Stalin, C. S (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017-04)
    In a first systematic effort to characterize the intra-night optical variability (INOV) of different classes of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) Galaxies, we have carried out observations on a sample of radio-loud (RL) and ...
  • Intra-night optical variability of misaligned active galaxies 
    Bhattacharya, Debbijoy; Gulati, S; Stalin, C. S (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019-03)
    The majority of the γ-ray sources detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope belong to the blazar class of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). In addition to blazars, a minority of non-blazar AGNs is also found to be γ-ray ...

    The majority of the γ-ray sources detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope belong to the blazar class of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). In addition to blazars, a minority of non-blazar AGNs is also found to be γ-ray ...
  • Intranight optical variability of blazars and radio-quiet quasars using the ZTF survey 
    Negi, Vibhore; Gopal-Krishna; Joshi, Ravi; Chand, Hum; Wiita, Paul J; Navaneeth, P. K; Singh, Ravi S (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2023-07)
    We explore the potential of the ongoing Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) survey for studying intranight optical variability (INOV) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), in particular for picking rare events of large INOV ...
  • The Intrinsic reddening of the Magellanic Clouds as traced by background galaxies – II. The Small Magellanic Cloud 
    Bell, C. P. M; Cioni, Maria-Rosa L; Wright, A. H; Rubele, Stefano; Nidever, David L; Tatton, Ben L; van Loon, Jacco Th; Zaritsky, Dennis; Choi, Yumi; Choudhury, Samyaday; Clementini, Gisella; de Grijs, Richard; Ivanov, Valentin D; Majewski, Steven R; Marconi, Marcella; Martinez-Delgado, David; Massana, Pol; Munoz, Ricardo R; Niederhofer, Florian; Noel, Noelia E D; Oliveira, Joana M; Olsen, Knut; Pennock, Clara M; Ripepi, V; Subramanian, S; Katherina Vivas, A (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020-11)
    We present a map of the total intrinsic reddening across ≃34 deg2 of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) derived using optical (ugriz) and near-infrared (IR; YJKs) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of background galaxies. ...
  • Optical Microvariability of Blazars 
    Ghosh, K. K; Kim, C; Ramsey, B. D; Soundararajaperumal, S (Korean Astronomical Society, 2001-04)
    We present the results of optical differential photometry of five blazars [PKS 0219+428(3C66A), PKS 0235+164(AO 0235+16), H0414+019, PKS 0851+202(OJ 287), and QSO 1807+698(3C371)] that were observed on 7 nights between ...
