Radio Weak Blazars Challenge the Basic Explanation of Blazars

Using the Fermi catalog of very high energy sources and the WISE infrared sky catalog, astronomers have found two BL Lac blazars with no apparent radio emission: “radio weak” BL Lacs. A blazar is a galaxy whose central nucleus is bright at wavelengths from the low energy radio band to high energy gamma rays (each […]
