Deterministic and Stochastic Study of the X-Ray Emission from the TeV Blazar Mrk 421

We present a comprehensive timing analysis of X-ray data from the XMM-Newton satellite, examining 50 light curves covering 17 yr of observations of the blazar Mrk 421. This work uses classical deterministic and stochastic methods in a novel way, enabling the distinction of temporal scales and offeri...
