What We Talk about When We Talk about Blazars?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
After the discovery of powerful relativistic jets from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies, and the understanding of their similarity with those of blazars, a problem of terminology was born.

Statistics of Cosmological Black Hole Jet Sources: Blazar Predictions for GLAST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A study of the statistics of cosmological black-hole jet sources is applied to EGRET blazar data, and predictions are made for GLAST. Black-hole jet sources are modeled as collimated relativistic plasma outflows with radiation beamed along the jet axis ...

The “Blazar Sequence” in the TeV Band

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The “blazar sequence” has been proposed for more than 20 yr, yet its nature is still unclear. In this work, for the first time we expand this topic to the TeV band by using a sample of 58 TeV blazars, including 48 blazars in the quiescent state and 21 ...

The CLASS blazar survey: testing the blazar sequence [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2004
We discuss the properties of the sources in the CLASS Blazar survey which aims at the selection of low radio power (P(5GHz)<10^25 W Hz^-1) blazars. We use VLA data from available catalogues and from our own observations to constrain the radio core-dominance of the sample which, together with the flat radio spectral index, is a signature of the ...

Multiwavelength Variability Analysis of 3C 279

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
We present a multifrequency analysis of the variability in the flat-spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 from 2008 to 2014. Our multiwavelength datasets range from 1 mm to gamma-rays, with additional optical polarimetry.

Blazar Optical Variability in the Palomar-QUEST Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study the ensemble optical variability of 276 FSRQs and 86 BL Lacs in the Palomar-QUEST Survey with the goal of searching for common fluctuation properties, examining the range of behavior across the sample, and characterizing the appearance of ...

Optical and Gamma-Ray Variability of the vRL NLSy1 Galaxy, 1H 0323+342

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
1H 0323+342 was one of the first vRLNLSy1 galaxies detected at gamma-rays with the Fermi-LAT and is one of the brightest of this class observed at optical wavelengths.

Flare Duty Cycle of Gamma-Ray Blazars and Implications for High-energy Neutrino Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Gamma-ray flares of blazars may be accompanied by high-energy neutrinos due to interactions of high-energy cosmic rays in the jet with photons, as suggested by the detection of the high-energy neutrino IceCube-170922A during a major gamma-ray flare from ...

Broad-band Jet Emission in Young and Powerful Radio Sources: the Case of the CSS Quasar 3C 186 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present the X-ray analysis of a deep ~200 ksec Chandra observation of the compact steep spectrum radio-loud quasar 3C 186 (z=1.06) and investigate the contribution of the unresolved radio jet to the total X-ray emission.
