Description

Misaligned AGN (MAGN) represents a new GeV and TeV emitters class. Thanks to the favorable orientation of their jets, MAGN proved to be extremely valuable in addressing important issues such as i) revealing the jet structure complexity; ii) localizing the emitting region(s) of very-high-energy radiation; understanding the physical processes producing very-high-energy photons. This talk will present the main results obtained in the last decade by studying MAGN at GeV and TeV energies. In addition, the impact of future Cherenkov Telescope Array observations will be discussed.
