Description

Blazars are the most luminous extrgalactic gamma ray sources. They are a type of Active Galactic Nuclei which are powered by material falling onto a supermassive black hole at the center of the host galaxy. They show sporadic bursts of activity with different time range. In this talk we present a 10 year data analysis of a sample of bright blazars detected by Fermi-LAT (0.1-300 GeV), in particular we present the Duty Cycle -the fraction of time that the source spends in active phase- for the sample. Also we present the consistence of this sample with the so called "blazar sequence" and how this analysis constrains possible counterpart of neutrino emission.
