上下文类星体B1420+326是一颗耀变体，被归类为平谱射电类星体（Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar，FSRQ）。在2020年初，它经历了一个增强的通量状态。广泛的多波长活动使我们能够追踪耀斑的演变。目的。我们寻找类星体B1420+326在此耀斑状态下的VHE γ射线辐射。我们的目标是在耀斑的不同阶段的宽带发射源的特征和模型。方法.用无线电、近红外、光学（包括偏振测量和光谱学）、紫外、X射线和伽马射线波段的一些仪器观测了该辐射源。我们使用专用的光谱学结果来估计的吸积盘和尘埃环光度。我们进行光谱能量分布建模的框架下，结合同步自康普顿和外部康普顿的情况下，电子能量分布的加速和冷却过程中的部分决定。结果在增强态期间，两个SED分量的通量急剧增加，并且峰向更高的能量移动。MAGIC望远镜的后续观测导致检测到来自该源的非常高能量的伽马射线发射，使其成为该能量范围内已知的少数几个FSRQ之一。建模使我们能够约束的磁场和电子能量分布在发射区的演变。在低偏振态期间，伽马射线耀斑伴随着光学偏振矢量的旋转。此外，一个新的超光速无线电结同时出现在喷流的无线电图像中。的光学光谱示出了一个突出的FeII凸点与通量一起演变的连续发射和不同的等效宽度的MgII线。
英文摘要：
Context. QSO B1420+326 is a blazar classified as a Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ). In the beginning of 2020 it underwent an enhanced flux state. An extensive multiwavelength campaign allowed us to trace the evolution of the flare. Aims. We search for VHE gamma-ray emission from QSO B1420+326 during this flaring state. We aim to characterize and model the broadband emission of the source over different phases of the flare. Methods. The source was observed with a number of instruments in radio, near infrared, optical (including polarimetry and spectroscopy), ultra-violet, X-ray and gamma-ray bands. We use dedicated optical spectroscopy results to estimate the accretion disk and the dust torus luminosity. We perform spectral energy distribution modeling in the framework of combined Synchrotron-Self-Compton and External Compton scenario in which the electron energy distribution is partially determined from acceleration and cooling processes. Results. During the enhanced state the flux of both SED components drastically increased and the peaks were shifted to higher energies. Follow up observations with the MAGIC telescopes led to the detection of very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from this source, making it one of only a handful of FSRQs known in this energy range. Modeling allows us to constrain the evolution of the magnetic field and electron energy distribution in the emission region. The gamma-ray flare was accompanied by a rotation of the optical polarization vector during a low polarization state. Also, a new, superluminal radio knot contemporaneously appeared in the radio image of the jet. The optical spectroscopy shows a prominent FeII bump with flux evolving together with the continuum emission and a MgII line with varying equivalent width.
