Polarization and Spectral Energy Distribution in OJ 287 during the 2016/17 Outbursts

Polarization and Spectral Energy Distribution in OJ 287 during the 2016/17 Outbursts

We report optical photometric and polarimetric observations of the blazar OJ 287 gathered during 2016/17. The high level of activity, noticed after the General Relativity Centenary flare, is argued to be part of the follow-up flares that exhibited high levels of polarization and originated in the pr...
