ASCA-VSOP SIMULTANEOUS OBSERVATION OF THE BL LAC OBJECT OJ287


ABSTRACT

We propose the simultaneous monitoring observations of ASCA and VSOP. OJ287 is one of the most extensively observed and studied BL Lac objects. The measurement of both synchrotron and SSC components is a key to evaluate basic parameters associated with radiation fields of the jet. but we have to assume geometry. So, it is very important to investigate the spatial structure of the jet. Simultaneous ASCA and VSOP observation enables us to investigate where X-rays come from, core or shock in jet.
