摘要:

我们比较了费米/LAT第一源目录中北部耀变体的伽马射线光子通量变化与Metsahovi类星体监测计划中的37 GHz无线电通量密度曲线。我们发现,同步毫米(mm)流量密度和伽玛射线光子流量之间的关系是不同的不同类型的耀变体。两个波段之间的通量关系是正相关的类星体,并不存在的BLLACs。此外,我们发现,在高状态下的伽马射线发射的水平取决于高频射电耀斑的相位,与最明亮的伽马射线事件与毫米耀斑的初始阶段相一致。从毫米级耀斑开始到伽马射线发射峰值的平均观测延迟约为70天,这将伽马射线产生的平均位置置于射电核心或下游。我们讨论的替代方案生产的伽马射线在秒差距的距离沿长度的喷气。

英文摘要:

We compare the gamma-ray photon flux variability of northern blazars in the Fermi/LAT First Source Catalog with 37 GHz radio flux density curves from the Metsahovi quasar monitoring program. We find that the relationship between simultaneous millimeter (mm) flux density and gamma-ray photon flux is different for different types of blazars. The flux relation between the two bands is positively correlated for quasars and does not exist for BLLacs. Furthermore, we find that the levels of gamma-ray emission in high states depend on the phase of the high frequency radio flare, with the brightest gamma-ray events coinciding with the initial stages of a mm flare. The mean observed delay from the beginning of a mm flare to the peak of the gamma-ray emission is about 70 days, which places the average location of the gamma-ray production at or downstream of the radio core. We discuss alternative scenarios for the production of gamma-rays at distances of parsecs along the length the jet.
