Scientific paper

Over the past year, the Wyoming Infrared Observatory (WIRO) near-infrared (NIR) camera observed 50 blazars with known flaring states out to a redshift z=2. Data were obtained in conjunction with previously scheduled Fermi/LAT observations over daily, weekly, and monthly time-scales. The Peters Automated Infraed Imaging Telescope (PAIRITEL) provided additional NIR observations. Here, we present a comparison of the fluxes and search for a correlation, or lack thereof, between the different wavelengths. We expect these results to have an impact on our understanding of the relationship between the temporal-spectral behavior of blazar physical states and the black hole evolutionary time scale.
