Optical Synchrotron emission from blazars is significantly polarized and the polarization probes the magnetic field structure in the jet. Rotations of the polarization angle in blazars reveal important information about the evolution of disturbances responsible for blazar flares. The RoboPol program for the polarimetric monitoring of statistically complete samples of blazars was developed in...

Blazar Optical Sky Survey (BOSS) Project is a dedicated observational survey with the aim of monitoring known blazars in optical wavelengths. The project was initiated in March 2013 at the University of Athens Observatory (UOAO), performing ground-based optical photometric observations in parallel with orbital (SWIFT/XRT, FERMI/LAT) X-ray observatories. BOSS project has immediately met...

The identification of high energy sources in the Galactic Plane is often a difficult but rewarding task as it can lead to the discovery of exotic stellar accelerators, such as gamma-ray binaries and microquasars. Here, we report a multi-wavelength analysis of the unassociated Fermi source 3FGL J0133.3+5930 at low galactic latitude. Two candidate counterparts have been identified inside its 95%...
