Single-zone synchrotron self-Compton and external Compton | |
models are widely used to explain broadband Spectral | |
Energy Distributions (SEDs) of blazars from infrared to | |
gamma-rays. These models bear obvious similarities to the | |
homogeneous synchrotron cloud model which is often | |
applied to explain radio emission from individual | |
components of parsec-scale radio jets. The parsec-scale | |
core, typically the brightest and most compact feature of | |
blazar radio jet, could be the source of high-energy | |
emission. We report on ongoing work to test this | |
hypothesis by deriving the physical properties of parsec- | |
scale radio emitting regions of twenty bright Fermi | |
blazars using dedicated 5-43 GHz VLBA observations and | |
comparing these parameters to results of SED modeling. | |
