Upper limits on the shortest AGN variability timescales are log(t_min,ul/hrs) = 0.85 ± 0.55, interpreted as light-crossing times from a few to thousands of gravitational radii in regions smaller than accretion disks.

Fermi-LAT variability analysis of jetted AGNs finds mean damping timescales of ~100 days, greater amplitudes in FSRQs than BL Lacs, emission regions at 2-4.5 R_DT but 123-295 R_BLR, and correlations with luminosities, loudness, black hole mass, and Eddington ratio.

Characterizing the origins of gamma-ray variability of the jetted active galactic nuclei observed with the Fermi-LAT
