In its first three months of operations, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Observatory has detected approximately one quarter of the radio-flux-limited MOJAVE sample of bright flat-spectrum active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at energies above 100 MeV. We have investigated the apparent parsec-scale jet speeds of 26 MOJAVE AGNs measured by the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) that are in the LAT bright AGN sample (LBAS). We find that the gamma-ray bright quasars have faster jets on average than the non-LBAS quasars, with a median of 15 c, and values ranging up to 34 c. The LBAS AGNs in which the LAT has detected significant gamma-ray flux variability generally have faster jets than the nonvariable ones. These findings are in overall agreement with earlier results based on nonuniform EGRET data which suggested that gamma-ray bright AGNs have preferentially higher Doppler boosting factors than other blazar jets. However, the relatively low LAT detection rates for the full MOJAVE sample (24%) and previously known MOJAVE EGRET-detected blazars (43%) imply that Doppler boosting is not the sole factor that determines whether a particular AGN is bright at gamma-ray energies. The slower apparent jet speeds of LBAS BL Lac objects and their higher overall LAT detection rate as compared to quasars suggest that the former are being detected by Fermi because of their higher intrinsic (unbeamed) gamma-ray to radio luminosity ratios.
We present a detailed statistical analysis of the correlation between radio and gamma-ray emission of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) detected by Fermi during its first year of operation, with the largest datasets ever used for this purpose. We use
We present a comprehensive 5-43 GHz VLBA study of the blazar 3C 273 initiated after an onset of a strong $gamma$-ray flare in this source. We have analyzed the kinematics of new-born components, light curves, and position of the apparent core to pinp
We present the results of high resolution VLBI observations at 1.6 and 4.9 GHz of the radio-loud Seyfert galaxy, Mrk 6. These observations are able to detect a compact radio core in this galaxy for the first time. The core has an inverted spectral in
The nearby low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN) NGC 4258 has a weak radio continuum component at the galactic center. We investigate its radio spectral properties on the basis of our new observations using the Nobeyama Millimeter Array at 1
The dense environment of a galaxy cluster can radically transform the content of in-falling galaxies. Recent observations have found a significant population of active galactic nuclei (AGN) within jellyfish galaxies, galaxies with trailing tails of g
