Re-brightening of the BL Lac object PKS 0735+178 observed by Swift
Abstract
Following the strong activity observed in radio (ATel #15105), optical (ATel #15098), X-rays (ATel #15102, #15109) and gamma-rays (ATel #15099) from the BL Lac object PKS 0735+178, as part of the follow-up observations of the region around the IceCube event IC211208A (GCN #31191), the Swift monitoring of the source has continued and further observations were performed on 2021 December 14 and 17. Swift/XRT data were taken during 2021 December 14 and 17 in Photon Counting mode for a net exposure of about 1.2 and 2.8 ksec, respectively.
