. Next: FSRQs Up: THE DEEP X-RAY RADIO Previous: Redshift Distribution . DXRBS' unique combination of a dual X-ray/radio survey method and high sensitivity has opened up important, large new regions of parameter space for both blazar sub-classes, within which a large fraction of our sample (nearly 50%) lie. This section is devoted to discussing these discoveries and their impact upon our understanding of the blazar class. љ . FSRQs . BL Lacs . Paolo Padovani . 1/5/1998

... The high angular resolution CGPS images of atomic hydrogen emission reveal a wide-spread, cold atomic hydrogen component of the interstellar medium in the form of dark self-absorption cloud complexes. These clouds resemble molecular cloud complexes in structure and trace the spiral arm structure of the Galaxy. ... Nevertheless, continuum absorption studies show that some of the cold atomic hydrogen clouds have temperatures as low as 15 - 20 K --- similar to dense molecular clouds. ...
