Long term monitoring of blazars is part of the Key Science Programs of the CTA Consortium. In this talk I will describe the foreseen observing program and the supporting optical monitoring observations.

Due to its ability to rapidly slew, with relatively minimal loss of observing time, Swift is able to look at many targets per day. This efficient pointing, combined with rapid response and the observatory's suite of sensitive telescopes covering multiple wavebands, make Swift an ideal monitoring observatory for the transient and variable sky. Swift regularly monitors a variety of active...

Many multi-wavelength campaigns have been carried out to study high-synchrotron peak BL Lacs (HBL). In particular the activity in the gamma-rays and X-rays seems to be correlated in many observations but, not conclusive results have been achieved yet. In this work we present a robust and comprehensive study of the (VHE) γ-ray/X- ray correlation of Mrk 421 with data taken with different VHE...

The nearby TeV Blazar 1ES 1959+650 (z=0. 047) is a high-peaked BL Lacertae object and one of the prime sources which has been monitored at VHE gamma-ray energies by FACT. This source is well known for its orphan flare in June 2002, which makes this an unique source. It was found in a low state of flux since its outburst in 2002 and did not show much of activity during the first three years of...
