Abstract:

We propose a 200 ks observation of 3C279, the archetypal EGRET blazar to be conducted simultaneously with GLAST as well as many other facilities, with the goal of obtaining broadband spectra and light-curves. The flux in all observable bands is known to be rapidly variable, but the information regarding the correlation between the time history of flux in various bands is limited, and the proposed observations are designed to remedy this shortcoming. Such detailed spectral and variability studies are crucial to discriminate between different radiation scenarios responsible for production of X-rays and gamma-rays, and to constrain the matter content and by extension, the formation process of the jet, dissipation of the jet energy, and energization of the radiating particles.
