An Optical Overview of Blazars with LAMOST. I. Hunting Changing-look Blazars and New Redshift Estimates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The extragalactic γ-rays sky observed by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) is dominated by blazars. In the fourth release of the Fermi LAT Point Source Catalog (4FGL) are sources showing a multifrequency behavior similar to that of blazars but lacking

Astrophysical Neutrinos and Blazars [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
We review and discuss recent results on the search for correlations between astrophysical neutrinos and γ-ray-detected sources, with many extragalactic studies reporting potential associations with different types of blazars.

Blazars at the Cosmic Dawn [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2020
The uncharted territory of the high-redshift (z ≳ 3) universe holds the key to understanding the evolution of quasars. In an attempt to identify the most extreme members of the quasar population, that is, blazars, we have carried out a multiwavelength ...

The Central Engines of Fermi Blazars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We present a catalog of central engine properties, i.e., black hole mass (M BH) and accretion luminosity (L disk), for a sample of 1077 blazars detected with the Fermi Large Area Telescope.

Blazars at Very High Energies: Emission Modelling

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
Blazars are very broadband cosmic sources with spectra spanning over twenty orders of magnitude in frequency, down to the 100 MHz regime in the radio range, up to VHE at several tens of TeV.

A Model of Polarisation Rotations in Blazars from Kink Instabilities in Relativistic Jets

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
This paper presents a simple model of polarisation rotation in optically thin relativistic jets of blazars. The model is based on the development of helical (kink) mode of current-driven instability.

Variability in blazars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics Supplement Series, 1998
The results of both BVRI CCD photometric monitoring and fast photometry for 8 blazars and variable quasars are presented. There is intraday variability for 6 blazars and very short timescales (minutes to two hours) variability for 5 objects. Implications for relativistic beaming are briefly discussed.

Near infrared polarimetry of a sample of blazars* [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Polarization variability is one of the most ubiquitous characteristic of blazars. Near infrared (NIR)polarization measurements of blazars are not common, contrary to the optical ones.
