Scientific paper

Observations of the BL Lac object OJ 287 were made simultaneously at
infrared JHK wavelengths and in optical and near infrared wavelengths at
UBVRI in 1983 January. These observations, of total flux reaching a peak
and then decaying, and of complex polarization changes, are explained in
terms of a model of a jet emanating from an accretion disc.
