Description
The compact radio source 2013+370 is a not yet well-studied blazar which is located close to the galactic plane (b = 1.2º) at a redshift of z = 0.859. We performed Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) monitoring observations at 15, 43, 86 GHz, which reveal the source kinematics on sub-parsec scales. The VLBI data are then combined with flux density variability measurements using the Submillimeter Array (SMA) and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) during the period 2003-2017. We search for possible correlations between the jet kinematics and the gamma-ray activity using a cross-correlation analysis. Here we present and discuss our findings.
