Scientific paper

We propose for two 25 ks ToO observations of blazars (or any other high latitude sources) undergoing an exceptional flare in the Fermi gamma-ray band. We intend to use Chandra only if observations with other facilities such as Suzaku or Swift are not sufficiently sensitive, or cannot reach the source because of the Solar angle or scheduling constraints. The resulting X-ray data - both the spectrum and variability information - will be indispensable to deterine the emission mechanisms, and by extension, allow inferences about the structure of the sub-parsec jet, and connection of the jet to the accretion disk and the supermassive black hole.
