PKS 0537-286, carrying the information of the environment of SMBHs in the early Universe

Abstract

We present the results of a multifrequency campaign on the high-redshift (z = 3.1) blazar PKS 0537-286. The source was observed at different epochs from 2006 to 2008 with INTEGRAL and Swift, and nearly simultaneously with ground-based near-IR/optical telescopes. The SEDs are compatible with a model based on synchrotron radiation and external inverse Compton scattering. The campaign gives an insight into the physical environment of the blazar.
