Beaming effect for Fermi/LAT blazars
In this talk, we will show the beaming effect for Fermi/LAT blazars, then we discuss the correlations between γ-ray luminosity and other parameters, such as radio Doppler factors, superluminal motions, and core-dominance parameters. We also compare the Doppler factors determined from the γ-ray luminosity, X-ray emissions, and the short-term time scales with those from other methods. Our discuss...
متن کاملThe beaming pattern and spectrum of radiation from inverse Compton scattering in blazars
By including Klein–Nishina effects, we generalize previous calculations of the beaming pattern of photons produced by inverse Compton scattering. For an isotropic distribution of soft photons upscattered by nonthermal electrons with a power-law density distribution n(γ) ∝ γ, embedded in a plasma moving with relativistic bulk speed we show that the observed radiation intensity is proportional to...
متن کاملThe Beaming Pattern of Doppler Boosted Thermal Annihilation Radiation: Application to Mev Blazars
The beaming pattern of thermal annihilation radiation is broader than the beaming pattern produced by isotropic nonthermal electrons and positrons in the jets of radio-emitting active galactic nuclei which Compton scatter photons from an external isotropic radiation field. Thus blueshifted thermal annihilation radiation can provide the dominant contribution to the high-energy radiation spectrum...
متن کاملRelativistic Flows in Blazars
The radiation we observe from blazars is most likely the product of the transformation of bulk kinetic energy into random energy. This process must have a relatively small efficiency (e.g. 10%) if jets are to power the extended radio–structures. Recent results suggest that the average power reaching the extended radio regions and lobes is of the same order of that produced by accretion and illu...
متن کاملVariability in Blazars
The kinetic energy of bulk relativistic plasma ejected from the central engine of blazars is converted into nonthermal particle energy in the comoving frame through a process of sweeping up material from the surrounding medium. The resulting deceleration of the bulk plasma introduces a number of effects which must be included in blazar modeling. For example, the varying Doppler factor means tha...
