Red synchrotron jets in Parkes Quasars

M.T.Whiting, 1999; in BL Lac Phenomenon (proceedings of a meeting held in Turku, Finland, 22-26 June 1998); Edited by L.O.Takalo & A.Sillanpää ; ASP Conf. Series 159; pp 91-94

Models of synchrotron emission are fitted to broadband optical to near-infrared photometry of Parkes Half-Jansky Sample quasars. Most of the sources show evidence for the presence of a synchrotron component peaking in the near-infrared. The results are compared with ROSAT observations, as well as emission line measurements, and the implications of these are discussed, particularly for BL Lacs.
