Abstract
This work investigates the multi-wavelength properties of 165 sources from the Fermi Large Area Telescope Fourth Source Catalog Data Release 4 (4FGL), with the aim of identifying counterparts in the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) First Large Absorption Survey in the HI (FLASH) continuum. Using high-resolution data from FLASH, complementary radio datasets, and archival ALMA observations, we performed detailed spectral energy distribution (SED) analyses across centimetre to millimetre wavelengths. Our findings reveal that most blazars exhibit re-triggered peaked spectra, which are indicative of emission dominated by a single emitting region. Additionally, we identify strong correlations between radio and gamma-ray luminosities, highlighting the significant role of relativistic jets in these active galactic nuclei. The inclusion of spectroscopic redshifts from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Gaia enabled a comprehensive analysis of the evolutionary trends and physical characteristics of the sources to be performed. Furthermore, we report a tight radio–X-ray correlation for flat spectrum radio quasars, thus contrasting with the more scattered behaviour observed in BL Lacertae objects and reflecting the distinct accretion and jet-driving mechanisms of the two populations. These results provide critical insights into the physics of blazars and their environments, paving the way for future studies with next-generation facilities such as the SKA Observatory for radio observations and the Cherenkov Telescope Array for gamma-ray studies.
