The Intrinsic γ-ray Emissions of Fermi Blazars
Abstract
Beaming effect is important for the observational properties of blazars. In this work, we collect 91 Fermi blazars with available radio Doppler factors. γ-ray Doppler factors are estimated and compared with radio Doppler factors for some sources. The intrinsic (de-beamed) γ-ray flux density (f inγ), intrinsic γ-ray luminosity (L inγ), and intrinsic synchrotron peak frequency ( p in) are calculated. Then we study the correlations between f inγ and redshift and find that they follow the theoretical relation: f = -2.0 z + const. When the subclasses are considered, we find that stationary jets are perhaps dominant in low synchrotron peaked blazars. 63 Fermi blazars with both available short variability time scales ( T) and Doppler factors are also collected. We find that the intrinsic relationship between L inγ and T in obeys the Elliot \& Shapiro and the Abramowicz \& Nobili relations. Strong positive correlation between fγ in and p in is found, suggesting that synchrotron emissions are highly correlated with γ-ray emissions.
