Swift follow-up of the flaring FSRQ PKS 1127-14
Abstract
Following the flaring activity of the flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1127-14 at redshift z = 1.184 (Wilkes 1986, MNRAS, 218, 331) detected in gamma rays by Fermi-LAT on 2020 December 10 (ATel #14260), a Swift target of opportunity observation was performed on 2020 December 13. Swift-XRT data were taken in Photon Counting mode for a net exposure of about 1.1 ksec.
