Since the historically strong outburst in 2009, 3C 273 showed relatively weak emission in the {gamma}-ray band over several years. However, recent Fermi-Large Area Telescope observations indicate higher activity during 2015-2019. We constrain the origin of the {gamma}-ray outbursts toward 3C 273 and investigate their connection to the parsec-scale jet. We generated Fermi-LAT {gamma}-ray light curves with multiple binning intervals and studied the spectral properties of the {gamma}-ray emission. Using a 3mm ALMA light curve, we studied the correlation between radio and {gamma}-ray emission. The relevant activity in the parsec-scale jet of 3C 273 was investigated with 7 mm VLBA observations that were obtained close in time to notable {gamma}-ray outbursts. We find two prominent {gamma}-ray outbursts in 2016 (MJD 57382) and 2017 (MJD 57883) accompanied by millimeter-wavelength flaring activity. The {gamma}-ray photon index time series show a weak hump-like feature around the {gamma}-ray outbursts. The monthly {gamma}-ray flux-index plot indicates a transition from softer-when-brighter to harder-when-brighter states at 1.03x10^-7^ph/cm^2^/s. A significant correlation between the {gamma}-ray and millimeter-wavelength emission is found, and the radio lags the {gamma}-rays by about 105-112 days. The 43GHz jet images reveal the known stationary features (i.e., the core, S1, and S2) in a region upstream of the jet. We find an indication for a propagating disturbance and a polarized knot between the stationary components at about the times of the two {gamma}-ray outbursts. Our results support a parsec-scale origin for the observed higher {gamma}-ray activity, which suggests that this is associated with standing shocks in the jet.2020A&A...636A..62Khttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/636/A62CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic servicerelated-toJ/A+A/601/A35 : High-fidelity VLA imaging of 3C273 (Perley+, 2017)J/A+A/604/A111 : 22GHz image of 3C 273 (Bruni+, 2017)J/A+A/623/A111 : 3C273 polarization over ALMA 1.3mm band (Hovatta+, 2019)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/636/A62https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/636/A62http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/636/A62https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/636/A62https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/636/A62http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/636/A62GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap2.8492099152324443e-23 6.62606957030801e-23Gamma-rayRadiodefaultJ/A+A/636/A62/almaALMA fluxesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
