| Abstract: | Using γ-ray data detected by Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and multi-wave band data for 40 TeV active galactic nuclei (AGNs), we have studied the correlations between flux densities (F R, F IR, F O, F X and F γ ) in the radio, infrared, optical, X-ray and γ-ray wave bands. Our results are the following: (1) For TeV HSP BL Lacertae objects (THBLs), there are strong correlations between F γ and F R and between F γ and F IR in all states (average/high/low); (2) The TeV radio galaxies (TRGs) deviate from the area occupied by THBLs; (3) The TeV flat-spectrum radio quasars (TFSRQs) have much stronger γ-ray emission than THBLs; (4) For THBLs, there are weak correlations between F γ and F X in all states as well as between F γ and F O in both average and high states, and a strong correlation between F γ and F O in the low state; (5) For THBLs, there are strong correlations between F O and F R in both low and average states as well as between F O and F IR in all states and between F IR and F R in all states, but no strong correlations among other bands are found. From these results, we suggest that for THBLs, 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 a important complementary mechanism. Compared with THBLs, TRGs and TFSRQs may have a different origin of high energy γ-ray. |
