Unified schemes for radio-loud active galactic nuclei

CM Urry, P Padovani - Publications of the Astronomical Society of …, 1995 - iopscience.iop.org
The appearance of active galactic nuclei (AGN) depends so strongly on orientation that our
current classification schemes are dominated by random pointing directions instead of more …

Variability of active galactic nuclei

MH Ulrich, L Maraschi, CM Urry - Annual Review of Astronomy …, 1997 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract A large collective effort to study the variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN) over
the past decade has led to a number of fundamental results on radio-quiet AGN and blazars …

A unifying view of the spectral energy distributions of blazars

G Fossati, L Maraschi, A Celotti… - Monthly Notices of …, 1998 - academic.oup.com
We collect data at well-sampled frequencies from the radio to the γ-ray range for the
following three complete samples of blazars: the Slew survey, the 1-Jy samples of BL Lacs …

A theoretical unifying scheme for gamma‐ray bright blazars

G Ghisellini, A Celotti, G Fossati… - Monthly Notices of …, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
The phenomenology of γ‐ray bright blazars can be accounted for by a sequence in the

Very-high-energy gamma rays from a distant quasar: how transparent is the universe?

J Albert, E Aliu, H Anderhub, LA Antonelli, P Antoranz… - Science, 2008 - science.org

On the origin of the γ-ray emission in blazars

G Ghisellini, P Madau - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 1996 - academic.oup.com
We assess non-thermal Comptonization models for the high-energy emission of the EGRET
blazar sources. We argue that the copious γ-ray radiation originates from a region that is …

Gamma-ray-loud blazars and beaming

L Dondi, G Ghisellini - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 1995 - academic.oup.com
We study the entire sample of quasars detected above 100 MeV (by the EGRET instrument),
on board CGRO. We find that the γ-ray luminosity correlates better with the radio luminosity …

Internal shocks in the jets of radio-loud quasars

M Spada, G Ghisellini, D Lazzati… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2001 - academic.oup.com
The central engine causing the production of jets in radio sources may work intermittently,
accelerating shells of plasma with different mass, energy and velocity. Faster but later shells …

Modeling the emission processes in blazars

M Böttcher - The Multi-Messenger Approach to High-Energy …, 2007 - Springer
Blazars are the most violent steady/recurrent sources of high-energy gamma-ray emission in
