Scientific paper

Recent measurement with the Automatic Telescope for Optical Monitoring (ATOM), operated by the H.E.S.S. collaboration and located next to the H.E.S.S. IACT array in Namibia, shows significant optical flaring activity of the gamma-ray Blazar PKS 1424-418 (RA=14:27:56.3, Dec=-42:06:19.4 (J2000), z=1.52)). This gamma-ray blazar (3EG J1429-4217, 1FGL J1428.2-4204) flared at optical wavelengths (ATEL #2103) and gamma-ray energies (ATEL # 2104) simultaneously in June/July 2009).
