Abstract

We have studied the correlations between luminosities (L R, L IR, L γ) in the radio, near-infrared and γ-ray wave bands for HSP TeV BL Lacs. The results show that there are significant intrinsic correlations between L R and L γ and between L IR and L γ in all states (high/average/low), and suggest that for HSP TeV BL Lacs, the Synchrotron Self-Compton radiation (SSC) is the main mechanism of high energy γ-ray emission, and the inverse Compton scattering of circum-nuclear dust is likely to be an important complementary mechanism.
