LINKS BETWEEN X-RAY AND GAMMA-RAY EMISSION OF BLAZARS


ABSTRACT

The links between X-ray and gamma-ray properties of Blazars are tantalising, but not clear. ASCA observations of three gamma-ray bright blazars will enable beaming and the existence of possible thermal features to be studied. Good values for the non-thermal power-law index will allow direct comparison with the EGRET gamma-ray spectra and enable us to study the possible Compton upscattering link between the X and gamma-ray emission.
