A Serendipitous Hard X-ray Detection of the Blazar LBQS 1319+0039

Abstract

We report a serendipitous hard X-ray (3-24 keV) detection of the blazar LBQS 1319+0039. The X-ray spectrum is consistent with powerlaw emission with a photon index of = 1.78. The observed emission and published redshift imply an observed 2-10 keV luminosity of 3.4×1045 erg s-1. This is consistent with extrapolations from a previous soft X-ray detection, thus there is no evidence for strong variability.
