A Multi-wavelength View of the TeV Blazar Markarian 421: Correlated Variability, Flaring, and Spectral Evolution

M. Blazejowski

We report results from a multi-wavelength monitoring campaign on Mrk 421 over the period of 2003-2004. The source was observed simultaneously at TeV and X-ray energies, with suppor…

X-Ray Emission from the Quasar PKS 1127-145: Comptonized IR Photons on Parsec Scales

Michal Blazejowski, Aneta Siemiginowska, Marek Sikora +2

We model the broad-band spectral energy distribution of the innermost "core-jet" region of the redshift z=1.187 quasar PKS 1127-145. We propose a scenario where the high energy pho…

On the Nature of MeV-blazars

Marek Sikora, Michal Blazejowski, Rafal Moderski +1

Broad-band spectra of the FSRQ (flat-spectrum-radio quasars) detected in the high energy gamma-ray band imply that there may be two types of such objects: those with steep gamma-ra…

Numerical simulations of radiation from blazar jets

R. Moderski, M. Sikora, M. Blazejowski

We present a description of our numerical code BLAZAR. This code calculates spectra and light curves of blazars during outbursts. The code is based on a model in which the non-ther…

Modeling the production of flares in -ray quasars

M. Sikora, M. Blazejowski, M. C. Begelman +1

Theories of high energy radiation production in quasar jets can be verified by studies of both time-averaged spectra and variability patterns. While the former has been explored ex…

Comptonization of Infrared Radiation from Hot Dust by Relativistic Jets in Quasars

M. Blazejowski, M. Sikora, R. Moderski +1

We demonstrate the importance of near-infrared radiation from hot dust for Compton cooling of electrons/positrons in quasar jets. In our model, we assume that the non-thermal radia…
