γ-ray variability of radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies

The recent detection of γ-ray emission from four radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies suggests that the engine driving the active galactic nuclei (AGN) activity of these objects shares some similarities with that of blazars, namely the presence of a γ-ray emitting, variable jet of plasma closely aligned to the line of sight. In this work we analyse the γ-ray light curves of the four radio-lou...
