A Characteristic Optical Variability Timescale in Jetted Active Galactic Nuclei: A Large Gamma-Ray Emission Sample

A Characteristic Optical Variability Timescale in Jetted Active Galactic Nuclei: A Large Gamma-Ray Emission Sample

The variability mechanisms from jetted active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are still under debate. Here, the damped random walk (DRW) model, implemented through Gaussian processes (GPs), is used to fit the Zwicky Transient Facility long-term optical light curves of 1684 gamma-ray emission jetted AGNs. Thi...
