The connection between jets and host galaxies of radio loud AGN: Blazars vs NLSy1s

open access: yes, 2018
This doctoral dissertation discuss the main properties of the host galaxies of those active galactic nuclei (AGN) capable of generating strong relativistic jets (and therefore, capable of emitting up to the γ−ray energy ranges) and with their jets ...

A Universal Physics Defining the Radiation Spectra of Blazars and Gamma-Ray Bursts

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Blazars and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are both cosmic beacons of extreme energy release powered by relativistic jets. However, they originate from tremendously different environments. Blazars are the sustained powerhouses driven by supermassive black holes

CONSTRAINTS ON THE MINIMUM ELECTRON LORENTZ FACTOR AND MATTER CONTENT OF JETS FOR A SAMPLE OF BRIGHT FERMI BLAZARS

open access: yes, 2014
We fit (quasi-)simultaneous multi-waveband spectral energy distributions for a sample of low-synchrotron-peaked (LSP) blazars with a one-zone leptonic model.

Polarization in Blazars [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2002
Based on the beaming model, a relation between the observed polarization and the Doppler factor was obtained by Fan et al. (1997, AAA068.159.190), who showed that the polarization is associated with the Doppler factor (boosting factor) in BL Lacertae objects (BLs).

The relation between black hole masses and Lorentz factors of the jet components in blazars

open access: yes, 2009
We explore the relationship between black hole mass (M(BH)) and the motion of the jet components for a sample of blazars. The Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) 2 cm Survey and its continuation: Monitoring of Jets in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with VLBA ...

The space density of z>4 blazars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
High-redshift blazars are an important class of active galactic nuclei (AGN) that can provide an independent estimate of the supermassive black hole mass function in high-redshift radio-loud AGN without the bias due to absorption along the line of sight.
