Abstract

inverse Compton scatteringmultifrequency emission from blazarsvariabilityX-raysWe show that the pronounced negative time delay between the X-rayand IR light curves (X-rays peak after the maximum in the synchrotronemission) can be accounted for if both forward and reverse shocksare considered.
