Abstract

In this work, we determine the central black hole mass for a sample of blazars including 30 γ-ray loud blazars with available variability timescales. The γ-ray energy, the emission size and the property of a two-temperature accretion disk are used to determine the absorption depth. If we take the intrinsic γ-ray luminosity to be λ times the Eddington luminosity, i.e. [Formula: see text], then we have following results: the masses of the black hole are in the range of 0.59 ~ 67.99 × 107M⊙(λ = 1.0) or 0.90 ~ 104.13 × 107M⊙(λ = 0.1). Blazars are also discussed.
