- ItemThe Optical Variability of the BL Lac AO 0235+164(Basel : MDPI, 2016) Fan, Junhui; Kurtanidze, Omar; Liu, Yi; Liu, Xiang; Richter, Gotthard; Nikolashvili, Maria; Kurtanidze, Sophia; Chanishvili, Revaz; Wang, Hongtao; Sasada, Mahito; Zhou, Aiying; Lin, Chao; Yuan, YuhaiIn this work, we present optical R band observations of AO 0235+164 carried out during the period of November 2006 to December 2012 using the Ap6E CCD camera attached to the primary focus of the 70 cm meniscus telescope at Abastumani Observatory, Georgia. It shows a large variation of ΔR = 4.88 mag (14.19–19.07 mag) and a short time scale of ΔTv = 73.5 min during our monitoring period. When periodicity analysis methods are applied to the R-band data from both historic and our observations, periods P1 = 8.26 yr and P2 = 0.54 yr are found.
