Black hole lightning of IC 310 and the days after

In November 2012, the peculiar TeV emitting active galactic nucleus of IC 310 showed an impressively bright gamma-ray flare on variability timescales of minutes. The shock-in-jet model fails to explain the photon flux flickering and the hard energy spectrum, if the source has a viewing angle of 10-20 degrees as radio observations suggest. Preferably, a magnetospheric model for the acceleration of particles and gamma-ray emission is proposed. An extensive multi-wavelength campaign in November 2012 until January 2013 was conducted including instruments from the radio up to the very-high-energy range. Here, we present the status of the results of this campaign and an interpretation consistent with an afterglow from the black hole lightning, with which we associated the 2012 event.
