Nine years of R-band photopolarimetry of 3C 279 show a stable polarized component that doubled after the 2009 flare, large EVPA rotations interpreted as jet precession, and a 2017 optical flare without counterparts in other bands.

Optical polarimetric and multiwavelength flaring activity of blazar 3C279
Nine years of R-band photopolarimetry of 3C 279 show a stable polarized component that doubled after the 2009 flare, large EVPA rotations interpreted as jet precession, and a 2017 optical flare without counterparts in other bands.
