SALT Spectropolarimetry and Self-Consistent SED and Polarization Modeling of Blazars

SALT Spectropolarimetry and Self-Consistent SED and Polarization Modeling of Blazars

We report on recent results froma target-of-opportunity program to obtain spectropolarimetry observations with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) on flaring gamma-ray blazars. SALT spectropolarimetry and contemporaneous multi-wavelength spectral energy distribution (SED) data are being mode...
