Synchrotron Self-Compton Model for PKS 2155-304
M. Kusunose, F. Takahara
H.E.S.S. observed TeV blazar PKS 2155--304 in a strong flare state in 2006 July. The TeV flux varied on timescale as short as a few minutes, which sets strong constraints on the pr…
A Structured Leptonic Jet Model of the "Orphan" TeV Gamma-Ray Flares in TeV Blazars
Masaaki Kusunose, Fumio Takahara
The emission spectra of TeV blazars extend up to tens of TeV and the emission mechanism of the TeV -rays is explained by synchrotron self-Compton scattering in leptonic models.…
Constraining the Emission Properties of TeV Blazar H1426+428 by the Synchrotron-Self-Compton Model
Tomohiro Kato, Masaaki Kusunose, Fumio Takahara
H1426+428 is one of blazars that are observed by -rays in the TeV region. Because TeV -rays from distant sources are subject to attenuation by the extragalactic background li…
Compton scattering in the Klein-Nishina Regime Revisited
Masaaki Kusunose, Fumio Takahara
In blazars such as 3C 279, GeV gamma-rays are thought to be produced by inverse Compton scattering of soft photons injected from external sources into the jet. Because of the large…
The Electron Spectrum in 3C279 and the Observed Emission Spectrum
Masaaki Kusunose, Fumio Takahara, Tomohiro Kato
The emission mechanisms of the blazar 3C 279 are studied by solving the kinetic equations of electrons and photons in a relativistically moving blob. The gamma-ray spectral energy…
Blob Ejection from Advection-dominated Accretion Flow II: the Multiwavelength Properties of Light Curves
Jian-Min Wang, Masaaki Kusunose
It has been argued that blobs ejected from advection-dominated accretion flow through the accretion-ejection instability undergo expansion due to their high internal energy density…
