Two active states of the narrow-line gamma-ray-loud AGN GB 1310+487

K. V. Sokolovsky, F. K. Schinzel, Y. T. Tanaka +49

Previously unremarkable, the extragalactic radio source GB 1310+487 showed a gamma-ray flare on 2009 November 18, reaching a daily flux of ~10^-6 photons/cm^2/s at energies E>100 M…

The Cosmic Evolution of Fermi BL Lacertae Objects

M. Ajello, R. W. Romani, D. Gasparrini +14

Fermi has provided the largest sample of gamma-ray selected blazars to date. In this work we use a uniformly selected set of 211 BL Lacertae (BL Lac) objects detected by it Fermi d…

Spectroscopy of The Largest Ever Gamma-ray Selected BL Lac Sample

Michael S. Shaw, Roger W. Romani, Garret Cotter +7

We report on spectroscopic observations covering most of the 475 BL Lacs in the 2nd Fermi LAT catalog of AGN. Including archival measurements (correcting several erroneous literatu…

Assessing the Significance of Apparent Correlations Between Radio and Gamma-ray Blazar Fluxes

V. Pavlidou, J. L. Richards, W. Max-Moerbeck +13

Whether a correlation exists between the radio and gamma-ray flux densities of blazars is a long-standing question, and one that is difficult to answer confidently because of vario…

Spectroscopy of Broad Line Blazars from 1LAC

Michael S. Shaw, Roger W. Romani, Garret Cotter +7

We report on optical spectroscopy of 165 Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs) in the Fermi 1LAC sample, which have helped allow a nearly complete study of this population. Fermi FSR…

The radio/gamma-ray connection in Active Galactic Nuclei in the era of the Fermi Large Area Telescope

M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Allafort +144

We present a detailed statistical analysis of the correlation between radio and gamma-ray emission of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) detected by Fermi during its first year of op…
