Testing the Blazar Sequence with Spectra of Recently Discovered Dim Blazars from the Fermi Unassociated Catalog

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Recent works have developed samples of blazars from among the Fermi Large Area Telescope unassociated sources via machine-learning comparisons with known blazar samples. Continued analysis of these new blazars tests the predictions of the blazar sequence

Basic properties of Fermi blazars and the ‘blazar sequence’ [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015
By statistically analyzing a large sample which includes blazars of Fermi detection (FBs) and non-Fermi detection (NFBs), we find that there are significant differences between FBs and NFBs for redshift, black hole mass, jet kinetic power from "cavity" power, broad-line luminosity, and ratio of core luminosity to absolute V-band magnitude ($R_{\rm v}$),

SYNCHROTRON POLARIZATION IN BLAZARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
We present a detailed analysis of time- and energy-dependent synchrotron polarization signatures in a shock-in-jet model for gamma-ray blazars. Our calculations employ a full 3D radiation transfer code, assuming a helical magnetic field throughout the jet.

Unifying MeV-blazars with GeV-blazars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We demonstrate that the spectral differences between Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQ) with steep gamma-ray spectra (MeV-blazars) and FSRQ with flat gamma-ray spectra (GeV-blazars) can be explained by assuming that in the MeV-blazars, the production of gamma-rays is dominated by Comptonization of infrared radiation of hot dust, whereas in the GeV ...

X-ray Flux and Spectral Variability of the TeV Blazars Mrk 421 and PKS 2155-304

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
We reviewed X-ray flux and spectral variability properties studied to date by various X-ray satellites for Mrk 421 and PKS 2155-304, which are TeV emitting blazars. Mrk 421 and PKS 2155-304 are the most X-ray luminous blazars in the northern and southern

Exploring TeV Candidates of Fermi Blazars through Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In this work, we make use of a supervised machine-learning algorithm based on Logistic Regression (LR) to select TeV blazar candidates from the 4FGL-DR2/4LAC-DR2, 3FHL, 3HSP, and 2BIGB catalogs.

Radio core-dominance of Fermi-blazars: implication for blazar unification [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2021
...The distribution of radio core-dominance is consistent with average projection angles of 13.5, 14.8, 16.8, 20.4, and 28.2 for ISPs, LSPs, FSRQs, HSPs, and radio galaxies, respectively. Linear regression analyses of our data yield significant anti-correlation r greater than 0.60 between core-dominance parameter and extended luminosity in each ...
