ROSAT Observations of BL Lacertae Objects
We present soft X-ray spectra of 74 BL Lacertae objects observed with the PSPC detector on board of the ROSAT satellite. The sample contains all BL Lac objects detected during the pointed observation phase as a target or serendipitously. We have investigated the soft X-ray and broad band spectral properties and discuss the consequences for the X-ray ...

Classification of Fermi BCUs Using Machine Learning
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has detected 6659 γ -ray sources in the incremental version (4FGL-DR3, for Data Release 3) of the fourth Fermi-LAT catalog of γ -ray sources and 3743 of them are blazars, including 1517 blazar candidates of uncertain ...

Multi-Band Optical Variability of Blazar 1ES 2344+514 on Diverse Time-Scales
This study presents the results of multi-band observations from 2022 to 2024 and Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations from 2018 to 2023, examining the flux variability of the blazar 1ES 2344+514 on diverse time-scales in the optical bands.

HESS J1943+213: a candidate extreme BL Lacertae object [PDF]
We report on a newly detected point-like source, HESS J1943+213 located in the Galactic plane. This source coincides with an unidentified hard X-ray source IGR J19443+2117, which was proposed to have radio and infrared counterparts. HESS J1943+213 is detected at the significance level of 7.9 σ(post-trials) at RA(J2000)=19h 43m 55s +- 1s (stat) +- 1s ...

On the Cosmological Evolution of BL Lacertae Objects
We study the cosmological evolution of BL Lac objects by applying the Ve/Va analysis to a new sample of 55 objects, presented for the first time in this paper. This sample has been selected from the 239 sources with the brightest X-ray flux (≥4 × 10-13 ergs s-1 cm-2) and relatively bright optical counterparts (B ≤ 20.5) among the ~1600 objects included

VLBI Observations of Nearby HBLs: Physical Implications
We review the jet kinematics of HBL blazars based on results of the MOJAVE survey, which obtained images of active galactic nuclei with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 15 GHz, and the VLBA-BU-BLAZAR program as well as its successor BEAM-ME program,

Multiwavelength Variability and Jet Properties of Low-synchrotron-peaked BL Lacertae Objects
Low-synchrotron-peaked BL Lac objects (LBLs) are promising candidates for masquerading BL Lacs, and the mechanism responsible for their high-energy γ -ray emission still requires further investigation.

The Cosmological Evolution of BL Lacertae Objects
We review the main results from several radio, X-ray and multi-frequency surveys on the topic of cosmological evolution of BL Lacertae objects. Updated findings on BL Lac evolution following the recent identification of many sources in the ``Sedentary Multi-Frequency survey'' are also discussed.
