A Comparison of the Centimetre-to-Submillimetre Continuum Spectra of BL Lacertae Objects and Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 July 2016
Abstract
A comparison of the centimetre to submillimetre continuum spectra of 22 BL Lacertae objects and 24 flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQ) has been conducted in order to search for systematic differences between the two classes. The same overall spectral shape is found for all sources and it is concluded that the same basic physical model applies to the continuum emission over this frequency range in both cases. There is clear evidence, however, for the BL Lacs to have flatter high frequency spectra and this difference is reconciled with an intrinsic difference in the underlying jets of the two classes.
