“…With the term changing-look AGN (CLAGN), we refer to those sources that can change their classification (e.g., from BLLAC to FSRQ or vice versa) after some dramatic event, such as a change in the accretion or in the jet activity [28,29,30,31,33,32]. Sometimes the jet activity can determine changes in the observational appearance but not a change in classification: for example, the decrease/increase of equivalent width of the emission lines when the continuum increases/decreases because of the jet activity [34,35,36,37] or a shift of the synchrotron peak [38,39]. A word of caution must be set down when comparing optical spectra with very different signal-to-noise ratio (S/N): sometimes, the lack of emission lines or other features might be simply due to a combination of weak lines and low S/N spectra, not to an intrinsic variability of the AGN (e.g., [40]).…”
