The Blazar Spectral Sequence and GLAST

Creators

  • 1. INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera, Milano (Italy)

Description

The present status and understanding of the 'spectral sequence' of blazars is discussed in the perspective of the upcoming GLAST launch. The vast improvement in sensitivity will allow to i) determine more objectively the 'average' gamma-ray properties of classes objects ii) probe more deeply the ratio between accretion power and jet power in different systems
