SPECTRAL PROPERTIES OF BRIGHT<i>FERMI</i>-DETECTED BLAZARS IN THE GAMMA-RAY BAND
SPECTRAL PROPERTIES OF BRIGHT<i>FERMI</i>-DETECTED BLAZARS IN THE GAMMA-RAY BAND
The gamma-ray energy spectra of bright blazars of the LAT Bright AGN Sample (LBAS) are investigated using Fermi-LAT data. Spectral properties (hardness, curvature, and variability) established using a data set accumulated over 6 months of operation are presented and discussed for different blazar classes and subclasses: flat spectrum radio quasars …
