abstract
The TeV emission of low power BL Lac objects has been established by the detection of an handful of them. The knowledge of the level of the TeV emission and its spectrum can shed light on the particle acceleration mechanisms, and it is especially important to assess the still uncertain level of the far infrared background radiation, which can absorb the TeV photons through photon--photon interactions. In view of these implications, it is necessary to enlarge the number of TeV detected sources, and to find them at different redshifts. To this aim, we propose a general and simple criterium to select the best TeV candidates, and produce a list of them with flux estimates above 40 GeV, 300 GeV and 1 TeV.

Parsec-scale polarimetry and kinematics of a spine-sheath jet in the neutrino-blazar TXS 0506+056
VLBI observations of TXS 0506+056 show a spine-sheath jet with aligned inner and perpendicular outer EVPAs plus a new superluminal component near the IceCube neutrino detection.
