A mixed lepto-hadronic scenario for PKS 2155-304

Published 18 Oct 2012 in astro-ph.HE and astro-ph.CO | (1210.5024v2)

Abstract: The models developed to describe the spectral energy distribution (SED) of blazars can be divided into leptonic or hadronic scenarios, according to the particles responsible for the high-energy component. We have developed a new stationary code which computes all the relevant leptonic and hadronic processes, permitting the study of both leptonic and hadronic scenarios in a consistent way. Interestingly, mixed lepto-hadronic scenarios (in which both components contribute to the high energy emission) naturally arise in this framework. We present the first application to the well known BL Lac object PKS 2155-304.
