A theoretical unifying scheme for gamma-ray bright blazars

The phenomenology of γ–ray bright blazars can be accounted for by a sequence in the source power and intensity of the diffuse radiation field surrounding the relativistic jet. Correspondingly, the equilibrium particle distribution peaks at different energies. This leads to a trend in the observed properties: an increase of the observed power corresponds to: 1) a decrease in the frequencies of t...

Gamma-Ray Blazars

Roughly 60 blazars have been identiied with > 100 MeV EGRET gamma-ray sources, and exhibit inferred isotropic luminosities as large as 3 10 49 ergs s ?1. The two most remarkable characteristics about the EGRET observations are that the-ray luminosity often dominates the bolometric power, and that variability on timescales at least as short as a day is seen from several sources in their aring st...

Blazars and Gamma Ray Bursts

Blazars and Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the fastest objects known so far. The radiation we see from these sources originates in a jet of similar aperture angle, and we think it is the result of the conversion of some of the jet kinetic energy into random motion of the emitting particles. Mechanisms for producing, collimating and accelerating the jets in these sources are uncertain, and it is fr...

X–ray Emission in Gamma-ray Blazars

As shown by Maraschi (this volume) the overall spectral energy distribution (SED) of the blazars detected by EGRET shows two peaks, in a ν–νF (ν) plot. With few exceptions, the minimum between these two peaks occurs in the X–ray range. We can exploit this observational fact to constrain the models proposed to account for the SED of blazars, and to reach an important conclusion: the conversion o...

Gamma-ray Light Curves and Variability of Bright Fermi-Detected Blazars

This paper presents light curves as well as the first systematic characterization of variability of the 106 objects in the high-confidence Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Bright AGN Sample (LBAS). Weekly light curves of this sample, obtained during the first 11 months of the Fermi survey (August 04, 2008 July 04, 2009), are tested for variability, and their properties are quantified through au...
