Abstract:
The analysis of blazars’ parameters from BZCAT leads to a conclusion that they do not have the same properties. The preliminary criterion to include an object in the catalog was the strong radio emission; however, two type of radio sources were selected: BL Lacertae (BLL) objects and Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQ). As a number of properties are typical of blazars (strong radio emission, optical variability, continuum optical spectra, polarization, high luminosity, etc.), using the X-ray data, we investigate them to clarify which property plays the most significant role in their classification as blazars.In addition, 48 % of blazars have detected radiation in X-ray have detected. We give the average statistical characteristics of blazars based on our analysis and calculations.
