In June 2015, the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar 3C 279 underwent an extremely bright gamma-ray flare, with an increase of the flux above 100 MeV by a factor 10 in less than 1 day, revealing an intrinsic variability timescale of 2 minutes as…
We present two algorithms to identify and flag radio frequency interference (RFI) in radio interferometric imaging data. The first algorithm utilizes the redundancy of visibilities inside a UV cell in the visibility plane to identify…
The aim of the present work is to specify the spatio-temporal characteristics of flare activity observed by the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) and Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES)…
We have made a deep search for radio emission from all the northern hemisphere supersoft X-ray sources using the VLA and MERLIN telescopes, at 5 and 8.4 GHz. Three previously undetected sources: T Pyx, V1974 Cygni and RX J0019.8+2156 were…
We report on the results of X-ray and radio follow-up observations of two GeV gamma-ray sources 2FGL J0923.5+1508 and 2FGL J1502.1+5548, selected as candidates for high-redshift blazars from unassociated sources in the {\it Fermi} Large…
The GOES X1.5 class flare that occurred on August 30,2002 at 1327:30 UT is one of the few events detected so far at submillimeter wavelengths. We present a detailed analysis of this flare combining radio observations from 1.5 to 212 GHz (an…
The extragalactic gamma-ray sky is dominated by relativistic jets aligned to the observer's line of sight, i.e., blazars. A few of their misaligned counterparts, e.g., radio galaxies, are also detected with the Fermi-Large Area Telescope…
Solar-type stars have been observed to flare at optical wavelengths to energies much higher than observed for the Sun. To date, no counterparts have been observed at longer wavelengths. We have searched the the VLA Sky Survey (VLASS) for…
In this paper we present follow-up optical observations of Ultra Steep Spectrum sources that were found by matching 150 MHz GMRT sources with either the 74 MHz VLSS or the 1400 MHz NVSS. These sources are possibly high-redshift radio…
We report on the discovery of one of the most extreme cases of high-frequency radio variability ever measured in active galactic nuclei (AGN), observed on timescales of days and exhibiting variability amplitudes of three to four orders of…
The results of an optical and infrared investigation of a complete sub-sample of the Leiden-Berkeley Deep Survey (flux > 1 mJy at 1.4 GHz) are presented. Optical counterparts have been identified for 69 of the 73 sources in the two Hercules…
Lorentz invariance violation in photons can be quantified by measuring the difference in arrival times between high- and low-energy photons originating from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). When analyzing data, it is crucial to consider the…
Flat-spectrum radio-quasars (FSRQs) are rarely detected at very-high-energies (VHE; E>100 GeV) due to their low-frequency-peaked SEDs. At present, only 6 FSRQs are known to emit VHE photons, representing only 7% of the VHE extragalactic…

We present detailed multi-frequency, multi-epoch radio observations of GRB 140304A at $z=5.283$ from 1 to 86 GHz and 0.45 d to 89 d. The radio and mm data exhibit unusual multiple spectral components, which cannot be simply explained by…
Lightning flashes result in an instantaneous emission of electromagnetic (EM) waves that encompass a broad spectrum of frequencies in the domain of radio waves. The signature of these impulses in the region of the very low frequency (VLF)…
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are highly energetic, extremely short-lived bursts of radio flashes. Despite extensive research, the exact cause of these outbursts remains speculative. The high luminosity, short duration, and high dispersion…
