Relativistic beaming and gamma-ray brightness of blazars

T. Savolainen, D. C. Homan, T. Hovatta +5

We investigate the dependence of gamma-ray brightness of blazars on intrinsic properties of their parsec-scale radio jets and the implication for relativistic beaming. By combining…

MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in AGN with VLBA Experiments. VII. Blazar Jet Acceleration

D. C. Homan, M. Kadler, K. I. Kellermann +5

We discuss acceleration measurements for a large sample of extragalactic radio jets from the MOJAVE program which studies the parsec-scale jet structure and kinematics of a complet…

MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei with VLBA Experiments. VI. Kinematics Analysis of a Complete Sample of Blazar Jets

M. L. Lister, M. H. Cohen, D. C. Homan +6

We discuss the jet kinematics of a complete flux-density-limited sample of 135 radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) resulting from a 13 year program to investigate the structure…

Multidimensional chemical modelling, II. Irradiated outflow walls

Simon Bruderer, Arnold O. Benz, Steven D. Doty +2

Observations of the high-mass star forming region AFGL 2591 reveal a large abundance of CO+, a molecule known to be enhanced by far UV (FUV) and X-ray irradiation. In chemical mode…

Chemical Modelling of Young Stellar Objects, I. Method and Benchmarks

Simon Bruderer, Steven D. Doty, Arnold O. Benz

Upcoming facilities such as the Herschel Space Observatory or ALMA will deliver a wealth of molecular line observations of young stellar objects (YSOs). Based on line fluxes, chemi…

A Connection Between Apparent VLBA Jet Speeds and Initial Active Galactic Nucleus Detections Made by the Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory

M. L. Lister, D. C. Homan, M. Kadler +5

In its first three months of operations, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Observatory has detected approximately one quarter of the radio-flux-limited MOJAVE sample of bright flat-spectrum acti…
