EVN & MERLIN studies of a new sample of BL Lac objects
The recent Deep X-ray Radio Blazar Survey (DXRBS) has identified a sample of BL Lac objects spanning the intermediate range of spectral energy distributions between “classical” X-ray selected and radio-selected samples of BL Lacs. Detailed studies of such samples are needed to answer some of the cur...

| description | The recent Deep X-ray Radio Blazar Survey (DXRBS) has identified a sample of BL Lac objects spanning the intermediate range of spectral energy distributions between “classical” X-ray selected and radio-selected samples of BL Lacs. Detailed studies of such samples are needed to answer some of the currently open questions regarding the nature of BL Lacs and their place in a unified model of AGN. High-resolution radio imaging provides direct information on jet evolution and beaming parameters. We present some preliminary results from EVN & MERLIN observations of sources in the DXRBS BL Lac sample for which little or no high-resolution radio data were previously available. |
