The study of gamma-ray blazars is usually hindered due to the lack of information on their redshifts and on their low-energy photon fields. This information is key to understand the effect on the gamma-ray absorption due to either extragalactic background light and/or intrinsic absorption and emission processes. All this information has also an impact on the determination of the location of the emitting region within the relativistic jets. In this work, a new optical spectroscopic characterization is presented for three gamma-ray blazars: S4 0954+65, TXS 1515−273, and RX J0812.0+0237. For all the three targets, the redshift determination is successful, and for the first time in the case of TXS 1515−273 and RX J0812.0+0237. Their classification as BL Lac type is confirmed based on these new optical spectra. For S4 0954+65 (z = 0.3694 ± 0.0011), an estimation on the disc, broad-line region, and torus luminosities is performed based on the observed optical emission lines. The results from this study are compatible with the nature of S4 0954+65 as a transitional blazar. In the case of TXS 1515−273 (z = 0.1281 ± 0.0004), although its optical spectrum is dominated by the continuum emission from the jet, applying the pPXF technique, the stellar population can be unveiled and is compatible with an old and metallic population. It is also the case of RX J0812.0+0237 (z = 0.1721 ± 0.0002). Moreover, this work confirms that the optical spectrum from RX J0812.0+0237 is compatible with an extreme blazar classification.

伽马射线耀变体 S4 0954+65、TXS 1515−273 和 RX J0812.0+0237 的光谱特征

由于缺乏关于它们的红移和低能光子场的信息,伽马射线耀变体的研究通常受到阻碍。该信息是了解河外背景光和/或固有吸收和发射过程对伽马射线吸收影响的关键。所有这些信息也对确定相对论射流内发射区域的位置产生影响。在这项工作中,提出了三个伽马射线耀变体的新光学光谱表征:S4 0954+65、TXS 1515−273 和 RX J0812.0+0237。对于所有三个目标,红移确定都是成功的,并且在 TXS 1515−273 和 RX J0812.0+0237 的情况下是第一次。基于这些新的光谱确认了它们作为 BL Lac 类型的分类。对于 S4 0954+65 (z = 0.3694 ± 0.0011),基于观察到的光发射线对圆盘、宽线区域和环面光度进行估计。这项研究的结果与 S4 0954+65 作为过渡耀变体的性质相符。在 TXS 1515−273 (z = 0.1281 ± 0.0004) 的情况下,虽然它的光谱主要由来自射流的连续发射控制,但应用 pPXF 技术,可以揭开恒星群体的面纱,并与古老的金属群体兼容. RX J0812.0+0237 (z = 0.1721 ± 0.0002) 也是如此。此外,这项工作证实了 RX J0812.0+0237 的光谱与极端耀变体分类兼容。这项研究的结果与 S4 0954+65 作为过渡耀变体的性质相符。在 TXS 1515−273 (z = 0.1281 ± 0.0004) 的情况下,虽然它的光谱主要由来自射流的连续发射控制,但应用 pPXF 技术,可以揭开恒星群体的面纱,并与古老的金属群体兼容.
