3 luglio 2007 Astrofisica Gamma dallo Spazio AGILE e GLAST AGN : Two main categories 1.Dominated by accretion - disk emission - AP-AGN 2.Dominated by Non-Thermal radiation - jet emission - NT-AGN Blazars: NT-AGN viewed at a small angle w.r.t. jet axis Radio Galaxies: NT-AGN viewed at a large angle w.r.t. jet axis Broad-line radio galaxies (e.g. 3c120) : A combination of AP-AGN and mis-directed NT-AGN Blazars and the AGN paradigm

The SED is consistent with two possibilities 1. New type of blazar 2. Very high power HBL High-power HBLs ? See also IGR J2251+2218, Bassani et al. 2007, submitted INTEGRAL discovered z=3.668 blazar with fx/fr ~ 2x10 10 erg/cm2/s/Jy
