The physical properties of \textit{Fermi} TeV BL Lac objects jets

We investigate the physical properties of \textit{Fermi} TeV BL Lac objects jets by modeling the quasi-simultaneous spectral energy distribution of 29 \textit{Fermi} TeV BL Lacs in the frame of a one-zone leptonic synchrotron self-Compton model. Our main results are the following: (i) There is a negative correlation between $B$ and $δ$ in our sample, which suggests that $B$ and $δ$ are dependent on each other mainly in Thomson regime. (ii) There are negative correlations between $ν_{\text{sy}}$ and $r$, the $ν_{\text{IC}}$ and $r$, which is a signature of the energy-dependence statistical acceleration or the stochastic acceleration. There is a significant correlation between $r$ and $s$, which suggests that the curvature of the electron energy distribution is attributed to the energy-dependence statistical acceleration mechanism. (iii) By assuming one proton per relativistic electron, we estimate the jet power and radiative power. A size relation $P_{\text{e}} \sim P_{\text{p}} > P_{\text{r}} \gtrsim P_{\text{B}}$ is found in our sample. The $P_{\text{e}}>P_{\text{B}}$ suggests that the jets are particle dominated, and the $P_{\text{e}}\sim P_{\text{p}}$ means that the mean energy of relativistic electrons approaches $m_{\text{p}}/m_{\text{e}}$. There are not significant correlations between $P_{\text{jet}}$ and black hole mass in high or low state with a sub-sample of 18 sources, which suggests that the jet power weakly depends on the black hole mass. (iv) There is a correlation between the changes in the flux density at 1 TeV and the changes in the $γ_{\text{peak}}$, which suggests the change/evolution of electron energy distribution may be mainly responsible for the flux variation.
