abstract
Based on broadband spectral energy distribution (SEDs), we estimate the jet physical parameters of 1392 $\gamma$-ray-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs), the largest sample so far. The (SED) jet power and magnetization parameter are derived for these AGNs. Out of these sources, the accretion disk luminosity of 232 sources and (extended) kinetic jet powers of 159 sources are compiled from archived papers. We find the following, (1) Flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) and BL Lacs are well separated by $\Gamma=-0.127\log L_{\gamma}+8.18$, in $\gamma$-ray luminosity versus photon index plane with a success rate of 88.6\%. (2) Most FSRQs present a (SED) jet power larger than the accretion power, which suggests that the relativistic jet-launching mechanism is dominated by the Blandford-Znajek process. This result confirms previous findings. (3) There is asignificant anticorrelation between jet magnetization and a ratio of the (SED) jet power to the (extended) kinetic jet power, which, for the first time, provides supporting evidence for the jet energy transportation theory: a high-magnetization jet may be more easily to transport energy to a large scale than a low-magnetization jet.

Radio-Gamma-Ray Properties and High-Energy Implications for Fermi Blazars
Using 1,687 Fermi blazars, the paper reports a plateau in gamma-ray loudness at high synchrotron peak frequencies, interpreted as Klein-Nishina suppression yielding magnetic field constraints for HBLs.

BL Lacertae under the Flare of 2024: Probing Temporal and Spectral Dynamics
The October 2024 flare of BL Lacertae varied on a ~1 hour timescale, and its broadband spectrum is claimed to require a proton-based component at the highest energies.
