15GHz variability of {gamma}-ray blazars

Using the intrinsic modulation index to measure variability amplitude, we find that, with >6{sigma} significance, the radio variability of radio-selected {gamma}-ray-loud blazars is stronger than that of {gamma}-ray-quiet blazars. Our extended data set also includes at least 21 months of data for all AGN with 'clean' associations in the Fermi Large Area Telescope First AGN Catalog, 1LAC.

With these additional data, we examine the radio variability properties of a {gamma}-ray-selected blazar sample. Within this sample, we find no evidence for a connection between radio variability amplitude and optical classification. In contrast, for our radio-selected sample we find that the BL Lac object subpopulation is more variable than the flat-spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) subpopulation.
