The synergy between the Fermi-LAT and ground-based Cherenkov telescope arrays gives us the opportunity for the first time to characterize the high-energy emission from blazars over 5 decades in energy, from 100 MeV to 10 TeV. In this study, we perform a Fermi-LAT spectral analysis for TeV-detected blazars and combine it with archival TeV data. We examine the observational properties in the gamma-ray band of our sample of TeV-detected blazars and compare the results with X-ray and GeV-selected populations. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) that result from combining Fermi-LAT and ground-based spectra are studied in detail. Simple parameterizations such as a power-law function do not always reproduce the high-energy SEDs, where spectral features that could indicate intrinsic absorption are observed.

  1. Variability Study of Extreme Blazars with VERITAS

    astro-ph.HE 2019-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    For three extreme blazars, VERITAS finds band-to-band correlations partly consistent with one-zone emission, while the TeV opacity analysis cannot rule out secondary gamma-ray production.
