Scientific paper

Rapid time variabilities of blazars are most probably related to particle acceleration. We simulate such flares by numerically solving time-dependent kinetic equations of electrons and photons simultaneously. We adopt a two-zone model in which the acceleration region is spatially separated from the cooling region. Starting from a steady state, the acceleration time scale is decreased for a finite time span and the subsequent evolution of electron and photon spectra is calculated. The numerical results well reproduce characteristic behavior of blazar flares. .
