Synchrotron Self‐Compton Model for Rapid Nonthermal Flares in Blazars with Frequency‐dependent Time Lags
Synchrotron Self‐Compton Model for Rapid Nonthermal Flares in Blazars with Frequency‐dependent Time Lags
We model rapid variability of multifrequency emission from blazars occurring across the electromagnetic spectrum (from radio to gamma rays). Lower energy emission is produced by the synchrotron mechanism, whereas higher energy emission is due to inverse Compton scattering of the synchrotron emission. We take into account energy stratification established by …
