High energy blazars spectroscopy with X-Shooter on the VLT
arXiv:1208.1785 · doi:10.1063/1.4772323
Abstract
We present results of observations in the UV to near-IR range for eight blazars, three of which have been recently discovered at Very High Energies (VHE) and five appearing as interesting candidates for VHE γ-ray detection. We focus in this paper on the search for their redshifts, which are unknown or considered as uncertain.
