Gamma-Ray and Multiwaveband Emission from Gamma-Ray-Loud BL Lacertae Objects

  • We have collected 18 γ-ray-loud BL Lac with observed data in multiwavedand, we find that γ-ray flux densities correlate better with the near-IR flux densities than those with the optical or x-ray flux densities. There is no correlation between γ-ray and radio flux densities. Possible constraints on the γ-ray emission mechanism are discussed. We suggest that the main γ-ray radiation mechanism is probably the synchrotron self-Compton process. The inverse Compton scattering of the radiation from hot circumscribe dust, by beamed ultrarelativistic electrons, is likely to be an important complementary mechanism.
