Scientific paper
The FIRST Flat Spectrum Sample (FFSS) is a deep radio-selected sample, unbiased with respect to X-ray emission. It is designed to enable us to determine the true census of the different types of blazars, resolving a long-standing uncertainty, and the first step towards understanding how Nature makes jets. This proposal aims to determine the "type" of FIRST blazars, which is easily determined from radio-optical-X-ray color and basic information about X-ray spectrum. We propose to obtain fluxes and hardness ratios for a subsample of the FFSS blazars, for which no X-ray information currently exists. With this information we will be able to answer the key question: "What kind of jets does Nature make?"
