Abstract

In this paper, the correlations of gamma ray with other bands are discussed for highly polarized blazars. The results show gamma rays are beamed. It is closely associated with the radio band emission, but not associated with optical or X-ray emissions. Gamma ray emission is likely from resynchrotron-self-Compton (SSC) process.
