Cherenkov and Jansky: Our Understanding of AGN at the Highest Energies    [PDF]

Jeremy S. Perkins, for the VERITAS Collaboration, for the Fermi LAT Collaboration
Misaligned blazars have been the subject of some of the most successful radio and gamma-ray multiwavelength campaigns. These campaigns have included many of the major ground and space based gamma-ray telescopes and span decades of energy. Even though misaligned blazars account for only a small number of the total AGN detected at VHE, they provide a unique view on the AGN population. By viewing blazars at larger angles to our line of sight, they become a unique laboratory for the study of AGN jet substructure and the morphology of non-thermal emission processes. This contribution will discuss our understanding of three VHE misaligned blazars.
