Flaring Behavior of the Quasar 3C~454.3 across the Electromagnetic Spectrum

We analyze the behavior of the parsec-scale jet of the quasar 3C~454.3 during pronounced flaring activity in 2005-2008. Three major disturbances propagated down the jet along different trajectories with Lorentz factors \(\Gamma>\)10. The disturbances show a clear connection with millimeter-wave o...
