High energy emission from flat-spectrum radio sources with $\sim$ kpc-scale structure

Abstract

Active Galactic Nuclei emit a substantial portion of their bolometric luminosities in X-rays. For example, the knots in radio jets are prominent sources of synchrotron X-rays while the hotspots of the brightest FRIIs emit self-synchrotron or Inverse Compton radiation. Most high-energy studies on flat-spectrum radio sources have been conducted for blazars which are dominant at values, at least)–one of them is in a Sy2, not in a blazar.
